Kettner - Science - 3/27/2017

What We Did Today
We finished correcting, "Structure and Function of Cells". Students were informed that there will be a quiz on Wednesday. They will be asked to label both an animal and plant cell and then answer 10 "who am I? riddles about the organelles.

Homework.
Find a website that has a quiz or game that will help prepare you for Wednesday's quiz. You can search: cell game, cell labeling quiz, cell organelle function quiz, etc. You might want to add the words middle school to keep the material age appropriate. If it seems too difficult find another one. Record the websites you went to and record your scores. You could also take a screen shot of your results as well.
