I even had one student check out a book in verse to take home and read!!

The students were really excited for a different hands-on activity after a week of experiments surveying chemical reaction types.\r\n\r\nLast week, we had a contest in each chemistry class for each group to build as many amino acids as they could from two types of 2D molecule representations -- it was a great chance for students in the summer school biology class to review what they've learned, and an opportunity for all chemistry students to review bonding and molecule diagrams before we continue with intermediate topics.\r\n\r\nMyself and other biology teachers will make more use of these kits during second semester and our summer school next year. They are a great resource to have on hand, particularly to support abstract thinking and translation between 2D and 3D representations.

Using the DNA and meiosis kits, they can build strands, model mutations, and clearly see how traits form. They can demonstrate crossing over between homologous chromosomes and visualize dominant and recessive genes. \r\n\r\nWhen they first opened the materials, they were excited to finally to have tangible objects they manipulate to help understand the more abstract concepts we were learning . A standout moment was when groups discovered how a single base change affected an entire protein and when a student used the chromosome models to explain to her classmates how alleles can move from homologous chromosomes. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for your generosity it means so much to my students are me!","fullyFundedDate":1757775524338,"projectUrl":"project/genetics-manipulatives/9660281/","projectTitle":"Genetics Manipulatives","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Simone","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10228493"},{"teacherId":6922079,"projectId":9042014,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donations to our project.
