What educators are saying

My students needed just a bit more practice about RNA and DNA before we got into the processes of transcription and translation. This was perfect!
This a great resource to use when teaching students to understand the differences between DNA and RNA.

Description

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Students will learn about DNA and RNA by completing this informative and no-prep DNA and RNA guided reading and practice questions activity. Students will answer chunked short-answer questions while reading the 2-page article. After the article, students will apply their new knowledge by completing practice problem activities. All questions are text-dependent and do not require prior knowledge of DNA or RNA.

⭐ Full Color PDF, Black & White PDF, and Google Slides Versions are all included!

Topics Include

• Structure and Function of DNA
• Structure and Function of RNA
• Parts of a Nucleotide

• Base-Pairing in DNA and RNA
• Type of RNA
• Central Dogma of Biology



This DNA and RNA guided reading worksheet is accompanied by post-reading practice questions and a teacher answer key.


Science article reading comprehension and questions make excellent sub-plans, a great close & careful classroom reading, meaningful homework, or alternative work for an absent student. Finding reliable articles or reading comprehension questions on the Internet is time consuming, and too often, secondary science students find the answer key online. This is easy to implement and your students won't find the answers online! Your students will be engaged with science literacy in your classroom!
