CHILDREN LOOK AT SCIENCE - HELPING CHILDREN UNDERSTAND 2: DNA
Why do people have different skin colors? Why do birds have wings and people don't? Why aren't we all alike? These are genetic questions that kids often wonder about and in this program kids help kids understand it's all a matter of DNA and RNA. They show that DNA is like an architect; but instead of building houses, it builds living things. It builds them by communications to the cell using only 4 letters in its alphabet; making 3-letter words; then sentences. Messenger RNA copies down sentences that DNA gives and tells the cell the work it has to do. This "language" is a blueprint for each of us and affects who we are and what we look like.
