Strawberry DNA extraction for 7th grade Life Science

Subject: 
Life Science

Hello RET participants!

This is a very easy DNA extraction lab I did with my students this year.  They loved it, because DNA can be so abstract, but in this lab they can actually see clumps of it!  There is a blank spot in the middle of the lesson where I drew a picture of the test tube set up for them to see.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Holly
