DNA

Uh oh! They're proposing a real-life Jurassic Park in Hillsboro! Your job is to investigate all you can about DNA in order to effectively convince them to stop this crazy idea. Good luck!

Your final challenge will be to create a Google Slides presentation that includes: electrons, protons, neutrons, atoms, molecules, nucleotides, and DNA.

Step 1

Please get a notebook and pencil so you can take notes.

Step 2

Watch this video about DNA and how it works.

Step 3

Read this short article about the structure of an atom on Newsela.

Step 4

Watch this video about DNA.

Step 5

Watch this video about atoms and molecules.

Step 6

Read this article on Newsela about molecules.

Step 7

Watch this video about DNA structure.

Step 8

Watch this video about nucleic acids and nucleotides.

Step 9

Read this article on Newsela, it is an overview of DNA.

Step 10

Watch this fun DNA song video.

Step 11

Create a Google Slides presentation. Use words and pictures. Be sure you include:

Electrons, protons, neutrons
Atoms
Molecules
Nucleotide molecules (ATCG)
DNA

These are the building blocks from smallest to largest. Make sure you describe them and how they build upon each other in your presentation .
