Students build protiens according to whether they are suppose to be a plant, a cow, or a person. They discover that all proteins are made from the same amino acids and it is just the order of these amino acids that change. Full Review »

Students are given an envelope that turns each of them into either a field of grass, or a diary cow, or a famous person (only one type of organism per student). The object is to get the correct building blocks for proteins (amino acids) that are needed to grow. The proteins are assembled using a small piece of masking tape to hold the amino acids together.

Students participate in a scientific activity to identify the building blocks for proteins (amino acids) that are needed to grow. They identify foods that contain proteins, how they are digested and rearrange the building blocks. They refer to a table for the amino acid building blocks for their correct sequence. Full Review »

Students investigate DNA strands. They study the sequence to determine if it is DNA or RNA and write the mRNA nucleotide sequence. After stringing the beads together to create the mRNA sequence they translate it into an amino acid sequence and compare the amino acids string to the DNA sequence. Full Review »
