Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis Amoeba Sisters Handout

This Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis Amoeba Sisters handout was made to accompany the Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis video created by the Amoeba Sisters on YouTube.

In this video, students will explore how monomers join together to form larger biomolecules and how larger biomolecules can be broken back down. They will learn how dehydration synthesis releases water to build larger molecules and how hydrolysis uses water to break molecules apart.

Clear examples with carbohydrates and proteins help students understand this tricky topic in a way that feels more visual and approachable.

This is not your average video worksheet!

My worksheets are designed to include:

• An anticipation activity to access prior knowledge and spark engagement
• Multiple choice questions in order of the video (not too slow or too fast)
• An independent activity for student practice after the video
• An independent extension activity

This handout is included in my Amoeba Sisters Video Handouts Bundle

Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis Amoeba Sisters Handout Topics:

• Monomers and Polymers
• Dehydration Synthesis
• Hydrolysis
• Examples in Proteins and Carbohydrates
• Why these processes are important to living things

This is a two-page video handout available in PDF and Google Slides. The first page includes a prior knowledge “hook” activity and multiple choice questions that follow the sequence of the video. The second page includes an independent practice activity and optional extension activity.

All video handouts my Amoeba Sisters series include:

• YouTube video link in full, tiny, and QR code formats
• Anticipatory activity to spark prior knowledge and engage students
• Multiple choice questions in order of the video
• Independent practice activity
• Extension activity
• Answer key

Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis Amoeba Sisters Handout Includes:

• 2-page PDF version
• Google Slides version
