I hope everybody had a pleasant and safe Thanksgiving. The homework and DUE dates are as follows:
Tuesday, December 2: Students have the choose of writing a full paragraph on either of the topics below:
- How is the West Nile virus spread? How did it get into the United States? Does it affect other animals also (such as pigs, horses)? Find out how many people have been infected, sickened, and killed by the virus here in Idaho. Find out if researchers have determined the shape of the virus. If so make a drawing of the virus.
