DNA and RNA Roles in Protein Synthesis

The weekly lesson plan for Grade 11 Biology focuses on the roles of DNA and RNA in transcription and translation, along with protein synthesis. Essential questions guide student understanding of genetic processes, while various instructional resources and assessments, including quizzes and group discussions, support learning. Activities are structured over three days, culminating in a concept map and a tech day preparation session.
