We have reached the end of Science Saturday. Wow. Studying through Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology with The Homeschool Scientist has been so much fun and I hope the resources we have provided are helpful to you.
Today, I want to give you a list of resources you can use for studying genetics and chromosomes.
Genes & Chromosomes Unit Study Resources
I will be honest. I did not realize how entwined evolutionary claims were in the study of chromosomes and genetics until I started gathering resources. While our family believes in creation, some of these might include a mention of evolution. Please just pick and choose what you can use and ignore the rest.

We made it!!! It has been a great year, hasn’t it? The kids have learned so much! Have you thought about what science you will be studying next year yet?
This study was do fun! Thanks for making the journey with me. We will be taking a break from Apologia and working through Christian Kids Explore Earth and Space Science by Bright Ideas Press. I made a promise to Maggie. 😉
Awesome stuff here, Tabitha
THANK YOU!!
Hi Penny,
I have just run across this blog post from the Pinterest world. Under your “Lesson Resources” you have a link to my Genetics Practice Problems. Just wanted to say thanks so much for the great shout-out! Also, I wanted to let your readers know that I have another genetics practice problem worksheet that can be downloaded at no cost.
