Also includes a comprehensive teacher’s manual with reproducible student worksheets, background information, lesson instructions, follow-up activities, and a glossary. Strawberries are not included. DNALC - Developed in collaboration with the Dolan DNA Learning Center, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Easy, fun DNA extraction for all grade levels! Meets many of the National Science Education Standards for life science content, grades 5-8, but can also be used for high school and college students.

Building Blocks of Life for Middle School/Junior High Students - From Carolina Biological and the Dolan DNA Learning Center. Take advantage of the exciting Building Blocks for Life series of kits designed specifically for middle school and junior high. This series of kits introduces basic concepts of molecular biology and genetics in a way that makes biology fun and interesting. Beginning with cell structure and function, and culminating with the extraction of DNA from fruit, these kits build on each other; however, each kit can stand alone. The complete series provides great flexibility in the order you present the material. With these Kits Students can: Make a cell model (Baggie Cell Model) Examine cellular diversity (Diversity of Life) Learn about the structure of DNA (Understanding DNA) Extract real DNA from fruit (Strawberry DNA Extraction) Observe genetic mutations in Drosophila (Fruit Flies: Exploring Mutant Organisms)

Beginning - Easy to perform; requires little or no prior knowledge

• Transforms the abstract concept of DNA into comething concrete
• Easy to use and safe enough for young students; interesting and informative enough for older students
• Comprehensive manual makes lesson planning easy

This kit meets many of the National Science Education Standards in life science. Students may never look at strawberries the same again! This exciting activity is ideal for introducing students to the fascinating world of DNA. Using a technique similar to the one used by scientists, students work in pairs to extract DNA from strawberry fruit and examine it. They also review plant cell structure, and learn cell wall and cell membrane composition.

An easy, fun DNA extraction for all grade levels, the activity can be used for high school and college but also meets many of the National Science Education Standards for life science content, grades 5-8. Kit is designed for 32 students.
