In this engaging, hands-on class, students will explore the building blocks of life that are passed down through generations to make each person one of a kind. They will compare DNA extracted from plants and humans and investigate how scientists study genetic material. Students will also be introduced to gel electrophoresis through simple, age-appropriate experimentation to see how DNA can be separated and analyzed. Along the way, they’ll discover how genetics shapes who we are and connects us to every living thing around us.
