Progress Reports

Progress Reports go out tomorrow (Thursday).  Please be aware that due to our reduction in school days, in addition to the 3 half days due to delays, students will only have 2-3 grades counting toward this average (depending on class period).

Additionally, if your student has had multiple absences, please remind him/her of the importance of timely make-up work. 

Please refer to INOW for the most current grades.  At least 1 more daily grade will be added this week.

7.       Virus Profile – students were to create a virus “character” and write an “about me” profile of the character.  The following words must be included and underlined in the profile:  virus, host, DNA or RNA, shape, lytic cycle, lysogenic cycle, vaccine, antiviral, reproduce, non-living.  (Students may use a different tense or form of the word.  Ex.  Vaccine/vaccination, reproduce/reproduction/reproduces.  Many of the students really enjoyed this activity, so I encourage you to ask them about their character!
