+. Begin by showing the students pictures of my family. Ask them to look carefully at the pictures and make observations. Record any observations the students have on the SMART Board (switch from single screen to duel screen). Ask the students what traits they observe. Help the students generate a list of observations of similarities between family members (most have brown hair, most have brown eyes, most have round faces, etc.).<br>2. Tell the students that we will be learning about how certain traits are passed down from parents to their offspring. Show slide-two of mother and daughters at the same ages. "We are going to be learning how a mother with brown eyes pass down brown eyes to their daughters, or how a mother and father with dark drown hair can have a daughter with light colored hair.”<br>3. Read through chart on genetics (Amino Acids= letters, Gene= word, DNA= paragraph, Chromosome = chapter, Genome= book). Show students the table (on slide three). Have students copy the table into their notebooks, they should add what part of the book corresponds with each term and a short definition or picture in the third column.<br>4. Take out the Russian Dolls<br>5. Review the material on the Genetics Chart. Emphasize the movement from small to large: amino acids is the smallest, the Genome is the largest. Once five dolls are placed out, model placing Amino acid card next to the smallest doll, and so on. <br>6. Next, place the definition cards. (Use the following to create a material
