Grades 6–8. Beginning at the cellular level, the Genes and Molecular Machines unit helps students explore the different ways that organisms reproduce and what that means for their genetics. Students learn how traits are passed from one generation to the next as they study zebra fish, plants, protists, and humans. By the end of the unit, students create their own "creatures" with unique characteristics and follow those traits to their offspring to learn about inheritance. Using Punnett squares, DNA, and mutations, they predict future generations.
Unit materials are available as a 1-class unit kit (item #513301), 1-class refurbishment set (item #513304), 5-class unit kit (item #513301U5), 5-class refurbishment set (item #513304U5), student guide (item #513303), Spanish student guide (item #513303SP), and digital student guide (item #513303E32).
