Body Systems Lab Report: Take this time home to learn more about how our body is a system of systems that must work together! For example, this current pandemic viruses's major target has been the respiratory system and now it depends on your immune system to fight for it! Now more than ever, we need our communities to know how our body systems are interconnected and as organisms we are interconnected in populations. We applaud any student being open-minded, couragious and willing to continue to grow their critical thinking skills and scientific practices from home. Our society needs you to learn these important skills! We planned to do this project with you at school but we have now turned this project digital. If you need help and advise, we are still your teachers! We still care about your growth! You are so important to us. Email us any questions you may have. Here is the first 10 days of enrichment lessons, during this you will be doing a project by creating your own body systems experiment to study. Please stay socially isolated while doing this. Please plan for an experiment that uses materials from home and run the experiment with the people in your home (or just yourself). You can run your experiment over one day or over a series of days. That is up to you! All assignments and project materials will be on your Google Classroom site. Stay safe, stay healthy. Wash your hands and thank a health care worker you may know.

Love, Ms. Benson holly.benson@rusd.org and Ms. Ferger megan.ferger@rusd.org
