It's something everyone can enjoy, and best of all - it's easy. Included in the primary document you'll find links to everything you need including a color

What is it?Are you looking for a way to introduce, reinforce, or review DNA replication? This interactive DNA replication modeling activity is fun and engaging for students, and it helps them get hands-on and minds-on with abstract cellular processes. This no-prep, remote-friendly activity provides detailed instructions for modeling a simplified version of DNA replication where students take on the role of DNA helicase and DNA polymerase while gaining an understanding and appreciation of the

This digital modeling activity allows students to drag and drop biomolecules to build a cell membrane complete with phospholipids and their constituent parts, cholesterol, and membrane proteins! Students enjoy putting the pieces together based on a short passage intended to simplify the structure of the plasma membrane. This activity works perfectly as a warm-up or introduction to cell and organismal homeostasis. A link to a key is provided so students can check their understanding and

Need a simple but effective way to review DNA structure and base-pairing rules? Include this as a station in your review of DNA or as a practice activity during instruction. In this activity students will apply what they've learned by labeling two custom-created diagrams. The first diagram shows an expanded portion of a DNA molecule for labeling of nucleotide components. The second allows students to practice the rules of DNA base-pairing by completing a complementary strand of DNA.

A variety of educational applications exist for social media, but none quite as creative as the design of social media profiles for topics of study. Teachers can create fun collaborative projects, design exploration activities, and encourage digital literacy with a fakebook template project. This product includes everything you need to get started with cooperative project-based projects whose possibilities are unlimited. Buy it once, then use it for your entire career in multiple subjects.

This lab introduced chemistry and physical science students to measurement through practice with lab equipment and techniques. It's an easy way to solidify prerequisite information and skills before tackling the chemistry curriculum. Your students will enjoy visiting stations and working cooperatively to complete the lab.
