9th Grade: Week of March 30- April 3

Hello,
We are now in the 4th Quarter. It looks like our first tulip has bloomed (near the front entrance towards Blue Lakes Blvd). We will be finishing up Chapter 7 (Cell Structure and Function) this week and begin our Ecology unit. The test will be on Tuesday. The homework and DUE dates are as follows:

Tuesday, March 31: Go to http://www.phschool.com/atschool/txtbk_res_sci.html and follow directions to Chapter 7. Go over the chapter materials for the test.

Friday, April 3: Ecology involves the study of the environment. The movie "Wall*E shows a possible future for us. In a single 5+ sentence paragraph, select one of the Native American quotes below and write about how we can use it to prevent such a future.

Ancient Indian Proverb:
"Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children."

Qwatsinas (Hereditary Chief Edward Moody), Nuxalk Nation:
"We must protect the forests for our children, grandchildren and children yet to be born. We must protect the forests for those who can't speak for themselves such as the birds, animals, fish and trees."
