This lesson will be used as an extension activity for gifted students in a general biology
classroom who have shown (through pre-assessment) to already grasp the basic concepts
of the unit. In this lesson, students will use Google Earth Tour Builder to create a
biography of a scientist who was involved in the race to determine the structure of DNA.
Students will master one of the VDOE Biology Essential Knowledge and Skills, while also
developing technology and research skills. Students will work individually in a pull-out
setting during Biology I class time; however, they may seek assistance and guidance from
one another.
