The 7th Grade Assessment for DNA asked students to CREATE a DNA molecule out of red licorice, toothpicks and marshmallows.  This model not only had to be correct in its base pairs, it also had to take the correct form!  Students were nervous about this not traditional assessment, but they all did AMAZING!  We are extremely proud of our students at WMS!
