    Y 10 WK 5 L 3 Pedigree

    Uploaded by

    api-450306740
    This lesson plan is for a Year 9 science class on pedigrees. The objectives are for students to recall symbols used in pedigree charts, recognize that many diseases are caused by more than one gene, and construct a pedigree chart. The teacher will introduce pedigrees using a textbook and explain the symbols. Students will then complete a worksheet involving a lab activity using materials like beads to demonstrate inheritance over multiple generations, similar to how pedigree charts show inheritance of traits and diseases. The lesson will conclude with a discussion and collection of the worksheets to check understanding.
