It is difficult to believe we are now in the Christmas season! From now until the Christmas break we will be finishing up the circulatory system and learning about the central nervous system/the brain and its corresponding parts.
Students will receive a review sheet on Monday and we will test on Wednesday, unless I think students need more study time, and then they will then test on Thursday. However, students should be studying Monday and Tuesday night for Wednesday. On Thursday we will learn about the neuron (a nerve cell) and its parts. We will model how a neuron functions by relaying a message through "the hand game". Our fingers will be the dendrites, our arms the axons, and our hand the cell body. Each student will be a neuron and pass the message to the brain. On Friday we will begin our central nervous system booklet which shows all parts of the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system.
Homework for the week:
Monday night: finish the review sheet and study for Wednesday's test
Tuesday night: study for Wednesday's test
Homework may be given out Thursday night: TBA
