In this activity, learners discover how frogs' bodies change while growing from a tadpole to a frog. Learners create a simple craft that gives a visual display of the metamorphosis process.

This activity demonstrates the specificity of viral vectors for target cells in gene therapy delivery methods using two approaches: 1) STYROFOAM® models demonstrate viral ligand binding to receptor pr

Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

In this activity, learners make their own edible DNA double helix out of candy and find out about the shape of DNA.

This activity is about collecting and analyzing DNA as part of a criminal investigation.

In this activity, learners use pedigree and jigsaw puzzles to explore how scientists use genetic information from a family to identify a gene associated with a genetic disorder.

Learners use a simple process to extract DNA from strawberries.

In this activity related to computer programming, learners give directions to a "robot" (either an adult or another learner) and find out which instructions the robot is able to follow, and how their

In this activity, learners explore deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a nanoscale structure that occurs in nature.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique. This activity allows you to see long, stringy strands of DNA extracted from wheat germ.

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique.

This is an educator-led demonstration of microarray technology using a model created from a pizza box and ping-pong balls.

In this experiment, learners isolate Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) from onion cells using a simple extraction procedure.

In this activity, learners examine their fingerprints and learn that they can be categorized by shape, but each fingerprint is unique.

In this activity, learners create an origami model of DNA, demonstrating its double helix structure.

In this game, learners cross off or color bingo squares in response to questions about their traits.

In this activity, learners construct a cereal chain as a model of how proteins are made in the cell.

In this activity on page 1 of the PDF, learners compare the relative sizes of biological objects (like DNA and bacteria) that can't be seen by the naked eye.

In this activity, learners perform an experiment that models a chromatography-like process called electrophoresis, a process used to analyze DNA.
