Instructions on how to extract DNA from students cheek cells. Includes follow-up questions.
Patterns Biology is the culminating course in the 3-year high school Patterns Science sequence. Patterns Biology focuses on three-dimensional (3D) learning through culturally responsive, phenomena-based storylines that intertwine the disciplinary core ideas of biology with the scientific and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts as described in the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
The Patterns High School Science Sequence (https://hsscience4all.org/) is a three year course pathway and curriculum aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
Each course utilizes:
- Common instructional strategies
- Real world phenomena
- Design challenges to engage students and support their learning.

Students will learn the parts of the cell cycle by modeling it. Students use various techniques to create a story board that models the phases in the cell cycle. Each part of the story board will be documented using a digital camera. Once the pictures are completed, the students will upload to Windows Movie Maker and create a short stop motion animation of the cell cycle.
