DNA molecules

In Mrs. Schiefelbein’s 10th grade Biology class students made a model of DNA molecules out of paper. When everyone is done making them they will hook them together and place them somewhere around her room. When they are done making them they will twist it to make a double helix. The students learn that DNA is a molecule that makes up genes and determines the traits of all living things. These models are to explain to the students how DNA looks and to explain how it does its job.
