What We Did Today 

Students were told about an opportunity to earn extra credit. Students can find an article about current research about genetics. A well written summary and commentary should be attached to the article. We also watched the video, "Genes, Genetics and DNA". At the end of class, we started determining what traits our "Smiley Faces" would have.

 

Homework 

Complete the genotype and phenotype chart of "Genetics with a smile".
