Day 1: Introduction to Gregor Mendel and His Experiments

Learning Objectives:

 Identify Gregor Mendel as the "Father of Genetics."


 Describe Mendel’s experiments with pea plants.

Activities:

1. Motivation: Show a short video or story about Gregor Mendel.


2. Lecture & Discussion:
o Explain Mendel’s background and why he used pea plants.
o Introduce key terms: trait, gene, allele, dominant, recessive.
3. Class Activity: “Pass the Trait” - Students will simulate trait inheritance using colored
beads to represent dominant and recessive traits.

Assessment:

 Exit ticket: What are Mendel’s 3 Laws? (Law of Dominance, Law of Segregation, Law
of Independent Assortment)

Day 2: Law of Dominance

Learning Objectives:

 Explain the Law of Dominance.


 Identify dominant and recessive traits.

Activities:

1. Review: Recap Gregor Mendel’s experiment.


2. Lecture & Examples:
o Explain how dominant alleles mask recessive ones.
o Show common examples: eye color, height in plants.
3. Guided Practice:
o Students solve problems using genetic symbols (Tt, TT, tt).

Assessment:

 Quick Quiz: Identify the dominant and recessive traits in a given set of parent genotypes.

Day 3: Law of Segregation & Monohybrid Crosses


Learning Objectives:

 Explain the Law of Segregation.


 Perform monohybrid crosses using a Punnett Square.

Activities:

1. Lecture & Demonstration:


o Explain how alleles separate during gamete formation.
o Show step-by-step Punnett Square examples.
2. Pair Activity:
o Students practice monohybrid crosses using different traits (e.g., tall vs. short
plants).

Assessment:

 Worksheet: Solve monohybrid cross problems.

Day 4: Law of Independent Assortment & Dihybrid Crosses

Learning Objectives:

 Explain the Law of Independent Assortment.


 Differentiate between monohybrid and dihybrid crosses.

Activities:

1. Lecture & Discussion:


o Explain how different genes assort independently during meiosis.
o Introduce the dihybrid cross (two traits at the same time).
2. Class Practice: Solve a dihybrid cross problem (AaBb x AaBb).

Assessment:

 Think-Pair-Share Activity: Discuss why some traits are inherited together.

Day 5: Probability and Genetic Variation

Learning Objectives:

 Apply probability to predict trait inheritance.


 Explain how genetic variation occurs through recombination.
Activities:

1. Lecture:
o Explain how probability plays a role in inheritance.
o Show how to calculate trait ratios.
2. Group Activity: “Genetic Coin Toss”
o Students flip coins to determine inheritance patterns.

Assessment:

 Reflection Question: How does probability affect inheritance?

Day 6: Non-Mendelian Inheritance (Extension Topic)

Learning Objectives:

 Identify patterns of Incomplete Dominance, Codominance, Multiple Alleles.


 Differentiate these from Mendelian Inheritance.

Activities:

1. Lecture: Introduce examples (e.g., Red & White Flowers = Pink in incomplete
dominance).
2. Class Activity: Blood Type Matching Game (Multiple Alleles).

Assessment:

 Worksheet: Solve problems on Non-Mendelian patterns.

Day 7: Performance Task & Culminating Activity

Learning Objectives:

 Apply Mendelian principles to real-life examples.


 Demonstrate understanding of inheritance through creative output.

Activities:

1. Group Task: "Create a Family Tree"


o Students trace traits across generations using Punnett Squares.
2. Presentation & Reflection:
o Each group presents their findings.
Assessment:

 Rubric-based grading on accuracy and creativity of the family tree.
