Scientist Barbara McClintock - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Barbara McClintock – Genetics and the Discovery of Jumping Genes Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🌽🧬 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 7–10 to Barbara McClintock – a pioneering geneticist whose research changed the way we understand genes and heredity. Many students know the basics of DNA and inheritance, but fewer have heard of McClintock or her discovery of “jumping genes” (transposons). Working with maize plants 🌽 in the mid-20th century, she found that genes can move within the genome – a finding that was far ahead of its time and only fully recognized years later. To help students access this complex but fascinating topic, I’ve created a compact and ready-to-use lesson. It includes an informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. All materials come in both color and black-and-white versions, plus there’s an H5P version for digital use. What’s included: A short, student-friendly text about Barbara McClintock and her scientific contributions A fact sheet to help students organize key information Quiz questions (with answer key) for self-checking or review A creative task where students come up with their own questions and exchange them in pairs Formats: Printable/digital PDF and interactive H5P version 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this material as part of our genetics unit, especially when discussing how scientific ideas are received and validated over time. It also works well in lessons on women in science or the history of biology. Easy to implement and suitable for partner work, independent study, or short projects. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Barbara McClintock into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨
