Next Gen Sci Guy

This is unlike anything you’ve ever done with students. When students come back to visit (even years later), this is the project they remember. All materials and resources are editable. In this project, each student will find an egg in the classroom. The egg will contain a unique genome, which encodes 10 or 11 traits. Students will learn to identify and decode the genes (protein synthesis), produce a dragon with unique traits (paper planes – wing size, body length, color, weight, behaviors,

In this project, students choose from a list of Genetically Modified Organisms (there are 24 on the list). Then, students research organism, answering some basic questions, and make a Google Slides presentation, or poster (you can choose). Then, students write a short paper to answer some more general questions about GMOs.
