We have improved the section on genetics of blood types in the student handout.  The Teacher Preparation Notes now include possible Extension Activities concerning the inheritance of skin color, so students can learn about polygenic inheritance, independent assortment and incomplete dominance (in contrast to co-dominance for the blood type alleles). These extension activities are worksheets, which we have found to be a useful supplement or alternative to hands-on activities for helping students to learn genetics.
