Science Extension

Welcome to Health/Science Extension!

We have been busy in Health lately.

The 6th grade is studying advertising and how mass media influences the choices that we make and on our self-image. They will be inventing a product and designing an advertising campaign to convince us to buy it.

Fifth grade is finishing learning about our brains and nervous systems. With knowledge about how our brains work, hopefully our next unit (on drugs and alcohol) will make more sense and they can see how someone can become addicted to a drug.

My voicemail is still acting up, so if you need to reach me, please use email.

This website has a humorous video about not spreading germs when we cough or sneeze. Classes have really enjoyed it.
