Use a different set during subsequent lessons to provide additional review without repeating the same cards.

Perfect For:

• Grade 3 life science
• Amplify Science instruction
• Heredity and genetics review
• Traits and characteristics lessons
• Science centers
• Whole-class games
• Small-group intervention
• Homeschool science

Why Teachers Will Love It

Inheritance and traits introduce students to important scientific ideas and unfamiliar vocabulary.

With four separate numbered sets, teachers can revisit these concepts throughout the unit using different cards and questions.

This flexibility makes the resource especially useful for vocabulary reinforcement, formative assessment, and cooperative learning.

Make the science of inheritance memorable with four engaging review sets that encourage students to think, listen, and collaborate!
