Description

Engaging Google Slides activities to bring the process of DNA replication to life!

Students will work through each stage of DNA replication, labelling and describing what is happening. There are three versions of the main task for easy differentiation. Students will also consider why DNA replication happens, analogies for each enzyme and why it is described as “semi-conservative”. This process can be a tricky concept for students, and these clear Google Slides activities will guide them through it.

Animated answer slides are included, along with a Google Forms Quiz. This is self-grading, so you can easily check student progress.

This resource is no prep – simply assign the Google Slides and Quiz on Google Classroom.

Content covered:

  • Why DNA replication happens
  • The process of DNA replication – enzymes and molecules included: helicase, topoisomerase, single-stranded binding proteins, RNA primase, primers, DNA polymerase, exonuclease, ligase. Note that I have structured the slides so that you can delete any stages and labels for enzymes that aren’t required for your curriculum.
  • Why DNA replication is semi-conservative
