Intro to Heredity Amoeba Sisters Video Handout

This Intro to Heredity Amoeba Sisters video handout worksheet was made to accompany the DNA, Chromosomes, Genes, and Traits: Intro to Heredity video created by the Amoeba Sisters on YouTube.

In this video, students will explore DNA structure and function, chromosomes, genes, and traits and how this relates to heredity.

This is not your average video worksheet!

My worksheets are designed to include:

• An anticipation activity to access prior knowledge and spark engagement
• Multiple choice questions in order of the video (not too slow or too fast)
• An independent activity for student practice after the video
• A fun extension activity

This is a two-page handout available in PDF and Google Slides. The first page includes a prior knowledge “hook” activity and multiple choice questions that follow the sequence of the video. The second page includes an independent practice activity and optional extension activity.
