I. Objectives
Given an activity, at least 90% of the students will be able to:
a. describe the structure of the DNA molecule;
b. explain rules of base pairing; and
c. create a DNA model based Chargaff’s rule.
Amen.
B. Checking of attendance.
C. Checking the physical condition of the
classroom.
(Let the student arrange their chairs and pick-
up pieces of paper.)
Motivation
If you want to bake a batch of chocolate chip
cookies, what would you need?
You probably need some chocolate chips,
flour, sugar, butter and eggs.
Lesson Proper
Class, did you now that if uncoiled, the DNA
in all our cells would go 10 billion miles.
That’s from Earth to Pluto – and back.
Do you know who discovered DNA? James Watson and Francis Crick discovered
DNA.
You’re correct! The discovery of the double
helix was by James Watson and Francis Crick
of Cambridge University, UK.
Do have another definition of DNA class? DNA is also called the blueprint of life and
is a genetic material.
That’s right! It is called the blue print because
it contains instructions needed to build cells.

Very good! I think you are now ready for
your activity. If you don’t have any question
let us proceed to our activity which is building
your own DNA model.
Activity
Please count off up to 6.Group one will stay
together. Our activity for today is MAKING
YOUR OWN MODEL OF DNA. I am going
to give you hand out with the procedures. Let
us read the steps all together. Step 1. Choose one of the sequences in the
hand-out.
. Step 2. Assemble one side of your DNA
molecule.
Step 3. Label the backbone
Step 4.Match the chemical base pairs.
Step 5. Complete your DNA model.
Step 6. Twist your DNA model.
Step 7. Label your model.
You may start doing the activity. If you have
any questions feel free to ask me. Work
silently. Please follow the directions properly.
(After 10 minutes…)
Are you done class?
Yes ma’am!
Wow! You did a great job. You did well in
making a model of DNA.
Generalization
Tell me what you know about DNA now?
It is shaped like a double-helix ladder.
That’s right! What is made up of the
backbone? The backbone is made of deoxyribose, a
sugar phosphate, and the ladder rungs are
the nucleotide bases.
Correct! What is the code for the proteins that
our cells make? The nucleotide bases are the codes for the
proteins that our cells make.
