In this activity, students explore the structure of the DNA molecule and begin to understand how the DNA molecule’s chromosomes, genes, base pairs, sugars, and phosphates are related.
Middle and high school students will always recall the double helix of DNA after completing this lab. This is a great activity to introduce genetics with a hands-on approach. The materials can be obtained at the dollar store and a local hardware store. Great decoration for your classroom. Wow, parents and your principal!
