Hardy-Weinberg Principle: Complete Lesson & Differentiated Practice

Master the complexities of population genetics with this comprehensive, ready-to-teach lesson pack. Designed for a 60-minute session, this resource simplifies the Hardy-Weinberg principle through clear visual explanations and scaffolded practice.

**This resource includes: **

• A fully animated PowerPoint that guides students through the theory, derivation of equations, and step-by-step worked examples.
• Integrated Answers: Solutions are embedded in the PowerPoint for easy self-assessment or whole-class feedback.
• Student Worksheet: Designed to accompany the lesson to keep students engaged and on track.
• Two Differentiated Bonus Worksheets: Ideal for homework or independent study, complete with model answers to support all ability levels.

**Learning Outcomes: **

• Calculate allele, genotype, and phenotype frequencies with confidence using the Hardy-Weinberg equations.
• Identify and Explain the five essential conditions required for a population to remain in genetic equilibrium.
• Deconstruct Variables: Clearly differentiate between p and p2 to eliminate common calculation errors.
• Analyze Evolution: Explain how deviations from equilibrium provide evidence for evolutionary change within a population.

Perfect for A-Level Biology (AQA, OCR, Edexcel) or introductory College Genetics.
