On Thursday, we will be introduced to each member of the Miller family and we will investigate the family's health history. As an extension of this lesson, students will be asked to inquire about their own family health history and we discussed the importance of them taking charge and being aware of their own health.
Next Monday, we will be extracting DNA from the “patient's” cells and then we will be building DNA molecules using K'nex construction toys.
The test for this unit is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, December 16. This will be our last unit and last test of the 9 weeks.
***Pre-AP Students – Remember you have a semester test after the DNA test. It will count as a regular test grade.
