Fun with DNA: Activities, Homework, and Stop-Frame Designing

Explore DNA structure with interactive activities, complete worksheets, do hands-on tasks, and design a stop-frame animation of DNA replication. Engaging and educational! Learn by acting out DNA pairing, forming hydrogen bonds, and replicating DNA strands. Enhance your understanding with stickers, helicase, polymerase, and free nucleotides. Exciting group or individual project due by 13th November. Use digital tools to create a stop-frame animation with detailed labels and share it in class on a USB. Have fun learning about DNA and its replication process!

  1. DNA Structure As a group come up with three INTERESTING things you know about DNA!

  2. Let’s act it out! • Find you partner base pair • Form a hydrogen bond! • Form two anti-parallel strands!

  3. Your task for this period Complete the DNA worksheet -read the text carefully and highlight the important points -answer the questions -colour in the diagram as instructed in the text

  4. Can youlabelyour DNA structurehandout WITHOUT usingyour notes?

  5. Now lets act it out again! • Copy of DNA base stickers • DNA helicase • DNA polymerase • Free nucleotides!

  6. Yourhomeworktask: Designa stop-frame (withlabels!) of DNA replication like this one • Itmustinclude: - unwinding and unzippingbyhelicase -formation of new complementarystrandsby DNA polymerase • Youhaveuntilthe13thof Novemberto complete this task • It MUST be at least 1 minute long! Youmaywork in pairs, groupsorindividually.

  7. Example of designing a stop frame • Use a digital camera/mobilephonetotake a photo of everyscene • Uploadthephotosontoyourcomputer • Copytheimagesinto a powerpointpresentationorMoviemaker • Addlabelsusingtext boxes • Rehearseyourtimings… • Bringittoclasson a USB nextTuesday!!

  8. Nowlet’sextractsome DNA!

  9. What´smissingfrom this animation??
