Time to build immunity in your classroom?

"Immunity and You," Curriculum Available
This curriculum from Cornell will enable you and your students to learn about immunity.

I have posted related vocabulary words here. You can therefore double click on them for meanings and pronunciations. You might also want to use them to create a, "Word Wall," in your classroom. Perhaps each student could design a card and write the definition, too, for the wall.

Get rest, eat healthily, play healthily, and enjoy life. Build your immunity.

Scientists meet...

When scientists meet, many ideas are exchanged. People get excited and bring home new research ideas.

You can hold a small scientific meeting with your friends. Get together and present the research you have done since you last met. Have 10 minute formal presentations. Then, take a break, have a snack, and discuss the research. See if you get new ideas for more experiments.

Write an experimental design and submit it to your parents or other supervisors and see if you can do your experiment or another similar one. Remember, those in charge have many things to think about: the budget, time constraints, safety, among others, so, you might not be able to do your experiment, however, designing the experiment itself is fun. Try it.
