Description

This DNA unit bundle gives you every lesson you need to teach molecular genetics, without the countless hours of planning. The DNA unit moves from DNA structure to replication, protein synthesis, and genetic mutations, then wraps up with hands-on mutation stations. Each lesson comes with student notes, practice, and answer keys, and most include a bonus video lecture. Those videos are a big help on sub days, asynchronous days, or when you’re under the weather.

What’s Included

• 1. DNA Structure: PowerPoint notes on DNA structure, the scientists, and Chargaff’s rule; a Cornell-style student outline; a DNA and RNA nucleotide diagram to label, with key; and a bonus video lecture
• 2. DNA Replication: step-by-step instruction, a student outline with a diagram to label, a practice worksheet with key, and a bonus video lecture
• 3. Protein Synthesis: step-by-step instruction, student notes with labeling, a practice worksheet with key, a transcription and translation concept map with key, a bonus video lecture, and a bonus quiz with key
• 4. Genetic Mutations: PowerPoint notes, a student outline, a practice worksheet with key, a concept map with key, a bonus video lecture, a bonus quiz with key, and a mutations interactive
• 5. Mutation Stations: 8 patient stations covering substitution, frameshift, and chromosomal mutations, with an answer key for each station, a student handout, and an instructions slide

Good to Know
