Happy Friday:)

In Class:
when you walked in the class you should have picked up a new stamp sheet. if you did the previous homework (UP pages 4/5) you got a bat stamp.


1st we got a little side tracked (big surprise) and watched a youtube video on cooties..

2nd we talked about the "postcard project" due 11/8
3rd we watched a movie called "Disease Warriors" for the rest of the period

The Postcard:
Grandma Gertrude lives in a very remote area where she doest have any contact to the outer world other than receiving mail. you are very worried about you grandma because there is a deadly disease that she could possibly come into contact with so you decide to send her a postcard. you need to chose a current disease, (options on UP 2) design a 5x7 postcard, write a message including..
- biological info about the disease
- a heading and closure
- dates of breakouts
- body of postcard in the form of a letter
- stamp and fictional address
- drawing or photo related to the disease
*note: you can NOT choose AIDs as your disease*
... for more info read page 2 of your UP
Next we asked questions we had about the cancer paper which is due this monday!
... the biggest question we had was about in text citations, if you need help look under Cell Unit Resources. the link is called MLA Citations

The Cancer Paper: DUE THIS MONDAY
it needs to be turned into turnitin.com by monday morning and you need to bring in a hard copy to class. if you are having trouble uploading it to turnitin.com you have a few options...
- go to the TLC for help
- find her Mon. morning in her office, (not our science room) with your paper on a flash drive

The Homework: - postcard due 11/8
- read section 20.1 and write "6 types of questions" and answer them. be sure to label which type of question you are trying to write so it is clear to Mrs. Stein.
- cancer paper due monday
the next scribe is Melissa
