Making (Hypothetical) Babies!

A 4-page completely editable document that your students will love!

All they need is a coin, a partner, and a pencil.

This activity simulates heredity, but more specifically: Mendel's law of segregation and meiosis. Students first make gametes and then combine their gametes to make babies using their very own traits.

An extra sheet for absent students is included to make things easier.

Appropriate for grades 7 and up.

A digital version is also available on Google Slides to support your distance learning needs!
