National Geographic: Genetic Markers: Connecting the Dots

Students first learn about genetic markers and how these can be used to learn more about ancient human migration. They then do an activity where they simulate passing on genetic markers, and problem solve to discover the 'migration' path the markers took. A vocabulary list with definitions is included.
