Overview
The K’NEX DNA, Replication and Transcription kit and this Teacher’s Guide are designed to aid in
teaching the structure and function of the nucleic acid molecules that make up DNA (deoxyribonucleic
acids) and RNA (ribonucleic acids). The K’NEX DNA, Replication and Transcription kit contains the
materials needed to complete the basic lessons described by this manual.
This Teachers Guide provides seven lessons that can be used to take students through three
instructional modules:
I. DNA Structure
II. Replication & Transcription
III. Coding, Translation, and Mutations.
Each basic lesson has been designed for a typical classroom period of 30-45 minutes. Suggestions
for extension activities and advanced concept applications are provided and, where appropriate, easily
accessed, supporting Internet resources are identified.
The use of student journals is encouraged for recording methodologies, observations, hypotheses, and
results. Student journals may be considered the counterpart of laboratory notebooks, which are key
to good science. Many patents and science misconduct hearings have been decided based on the
records that scientists kept in laboratory notebooks or journals. Future scientific progress relies
on accurately recording current discoveries.
Objectives
DNA replication and the processes required for the conversion of DNA to RNA to proteins are
frequently referred to as the “Central Dogma of Molecular Biology.” The key events in this central
theory of life are replication, transcription, and translation.
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
This Teacher’s Guide will support instruction on the structure of DNA and RNA and on their functions
in the processes of replication, transcription and translation. While the kit itself provides an excellent
demonstration tool at the elementary school level, the curriculum contained in this Guide is geared
to middle and high school students. Content and activities appropriate only for more advanced or
advanced placement (AP) students are enclosed in a text box and preceded by the symbol .
