Description

23 editable task cards focused on the structure and function of DNA- nucleotides, nitrogen base pairs, Chargaff's rule, Watson and Crick, Rosalind Franklin, relationship to amino acids, the human genome project and some interesting facts!

*Also hosted on Google Slides for a digital version*!

Also included: a 3 page student recording sheet that they can use to write their answers. (Answer key included as always).

Why task cards? Task cards can be used as individual stations or an entire set as part of a review. Or, print them in a smaller format (4-6 per sheet) for students to tackle in small groups. They are GREAT for test prep or formative assessment.

You can also use task cards one at time as a warm-up / bellringer, or exit tickets. Choose which ones you want to print to make a sheets worth of bellringer questions. Students can use the answer sheet as a bellringer journal!

Topics included:

DNA structure and function

Base pairs (purines vs pyrimidines) and pairing rules

Chargaff's Rule

Discovery of DNA

I liked that the questions were not multiple choice which helped increase the rigor. I used this the day after I introduced DNA Structure to my students. I did not allow them to use their notes at the stations so I could really gauge how much they understood from the notes presented the previous day.
