Think about natural selection, its time for class.
I think you may have added a few things that do not make sense such as your word before natural selection, and the word between time and class.I also think you got your last two words mixed up. I could be completely wrong but this is the only sentence i got that made sense.
Elizabeth, I wish you had included your work with your answer, because I can't figure out how you got the sentence you did from the code. Where did you start decoding?
Richard, your code was missng start and stop codons, so your decoder didn't know where to start. Without those clues, you just start from the very beginning and this is what you get:
DNA: ATTGACCCTGTCAGGGTGAAATACTGAACTTGCCG RNA: UAA CUG GGA CAG UCC CAC UUU AUG ACU UGA ACG GC An were special eat into think in (start) pizza it school GC
You did underline the random bases (which you were meant to include) and if we take that as a clue, it decodes correctly (see below. However, this was supposed to imitate real protein synthesis and there are no underlines in DNA! Only start/stop codons, which is why the needed to be included here.

The sentence is actually

Well, did you translate back to mRNA?
This is the DNA strand
