Planning an entire molecular genetics unit can feel overwhelming. There are a lot of moving parts, big concepts, and limited time to piece everything together.
This unit plan covers the processes of DNA, DNA replication, protein synthesis, and mutations, and includes everything you need to teach a complete high school genetics unit. This Free Molecular Genetics Unit Plan & Pacing Guide is designed to take that stress off your plate and accompanies my molecular genetics unit.
Created by a high school biology teacher for teachers, this resource walks you through a complete 30-day molecular genetics unit so you can see exactly how everything fits together before committing to a full curriculum. It gives you clarity, structure, and confidence when teaching one of the most important biology units of the year.
✔ A 30-day pacing guide that maps out objectives, warm-ups, activities, and assessments
✔ Clear daily learning objectives aligned to NGSS standards
✔ A full breakdown of how topics build from DNA base-paring to mutations
✔ An overview of hands-on activities, simulations, readings, stations, and assessments
✔ Example daily lesson plans so you can see how each day flows
✔ Materials lists and pacing suggestions to help with prep and scheduling
✔ Built-in remediation and sub-plan options
This plan shows you what to teach, when to teach it, and why it matters—without requiring you to design the unit from scratch. You will receive an editable version of this unit plan (and a unit vocabulary list) when you purchase the molecular genetics complete unit.
