If you’re looking for a meaningful way to connect your biology curriculum to real-world science careers, this Careers in Science Macromolecules Activity is a perfect fit!
This no-prep macromolecules worksheet introduces students to biochemist Dr. Jennifer Doudna and helps them explore how large biological molecules like DNA, RNA, and proteins are connected to modern science and biotechnology. Students will see how understanding the structure and function of macromolecules can lead to major breakthroughs, including the development of CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing.
I designed this as an easy go-to for early finishers, sub plans, homework, enrichment, or anytime you want to show students how what they’re learning in class connects to real scientists doing exciting work.
Want more biology career connections like this one? This activity is also included in my Biology Careers in Science Activities Bundle, which includes multiple no-prep worksheets connecting biology topics to real scientists and modern science careers.
This activity fits perfectly when teaching macromolecules, introducing nucleic acids and proteins, discussing biotechnology, or helping students connect molecular biology to real-world medical research. Students will see how the molecules they learn about in biology can be studied, modified, and used to solve important problems.
Your students will see that macromolecules are not just chart categories or vocabulary terms. They are the molecules of life behind some of the biggest discoveries in modern biology.
