Think Now
    • Math and science tutoring will continue on Thursday.
    • No tutoring next Tues.
    - IXL Grades: Grade is based on skills completed with 100%
    For example, 3 or more skills in section K from IXL will result in a grade of "4=A"
    Less than 3 skills in section K with 100% will result in a grade of  "1=NP"

Periods 1, 3 & 5 Science
Standards
LS1.A: Structure and Function: In multicellular organisms, the body is a system of multiple interacting subsystems. These subsystems are groups of cells that work together to form tissues and organs that are specialized for particular body functions. (MS-LS1-3)

Objective: 

Today I will gather and evaluate more evidence about how bacteria that is transferred during a fecal transplant can help cure an infected patient.

By the end of the lesson I will explain how:

  • B. fragilis bacteria produce immune cells that can kill invading harmful bacteria.
  • L. reuteri bacteria produce mucus that can line the gut and protect it from harmful bacteria.
  • A scientific argument is convincing when it includes evidence that strongly supports the claim.

Agenda:
1.  Amplify Lesson: Chapter 2, Lesson 6
a. Student-to student discussion (10 minutes)
b. Reading about bacteria (15 minutes)
    - sharing annotations with partner
c. Student-to student discussion  (20 minutes)
    - Using the Evidence Gradient
    - Exit Slip

2. Review Homework

Objective: 

I will analyze an experiment about bacteria and by the end of the lesson I will explain how...

Antibiotics reduce the number of helpful and harmful bacteria in the microbiome.
Living things with fewer than normal helpful bacteria in their guts can become infected more easily because there is more food and space available for harmful bacteria.
