Science fair is in less than four weeks.
Please take time to check in with me if you have questions.
Parents, I sent home a packet for middle school students to keep them on track and assist them in making sure their project lines up with specifications.
We're doing a unit on infectious disease called, "Outbreak". It's an event based module where we learn about how disease is spread and how to deal with infectious disease. We studied patient profiles and lab results to determine that our fictional town had an outbreak of tuberculosis; groups identified patient zero and tracked the spread of disease.
This week we'll be reading about Ebola, running a lab to determine what types of potentially infectious agents live in water and food around us (and what kind of friendly critters live there, too) and finishing up with a lab report.
Students will also have a periodic table test this week on 1-42 plus a few of the most common: Platinum, plutonium, uranium, tin, radon, radium, gold, silver, iodine
New for this week and last week include rubidium (Rb 37) strontium (Sr 38) yttrium (Y 39) zirconium (Zr 40) niobium (Nb 41) and molybdenum (Mo 42).
