Last quarter, when we learned about DNA and the molecules, we did a project where we had to make a DNA ornament.  We did it in class and used some pretty expensive materials.  It took us a few days, but it was still fun.  Here is how we did it.
     We made the ornament with these glass-like beads.  We also used this specific kind of wire that held the beads together.  First, we got all the materials we needed.  Then, we started the project by adding the beads to show the DNA molecules form.  We got to choose what order we wanted to put the beads in as long as blue (C) and gold (G) were paired up as well as green (A) and red (T).  As long as those were paired up, we could use whatever order we wanted.  Overall, I really enjoyed this project.
