This week, students are working on their summative projects for our living systems unit. Students are using their background knowledge of cells and human body systems to build a new understanding of how the ebola virus affects humans. Their summative task is to use their knowledge to create a strategic action plan for stopping the outbreak, All materials related to this project can be found at the following link: http://www.pbs.org/newshour/extra/lessons_plans/ebola-outbreak-mission-instructions-and-resources-digital-student-guide/
