7th-8th Grade Science: Week of Feb. 16-19

Hello,
I hope you enjoyed your long weekend. We are wrapping up our Cell Division and Genetics Unit with a final culminating activity. Each student will select a genetic disorder, conduct research on the disorder (Wednesday-Friday), submit a 2-page paper (next Monday), and finally (next Monday-Tuesday) make a short Powerpoint presentation to the class based on knowledge gained from the research/paper. The grade for this activity is based equally between the rough draft, final draft, and presentation. I will provide all the needed information tomorrow, Monday, in class. I will also be distributing the Science Fair Certificates tomorrow for your great work over the last weeks. The only homework and the DUE date is as follows:

Friday, Feb. 19: 2-page Rough draft of paper

Have a great week,
-Mr. Pfiester
