6th Grade Science<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013
This week, we\u2019ll be studying, analyzing, and investigating the connections between unicellular and multicellular organisms. We\u2019ll be learning that cells are the building block of life and that all living things are comprised of one or more cells. Throughout this unit, we\u2019ll also be examining the relationship between biotic and abiotic components and we\u2019ll be learning about the difference between viruses, parasites, bacteria, and healthy cells. We\u2019ll also be examining the parts of cells, functions of cells, and the characteristics of living things. There will be a\u00a0Cells Quiz<\/strong>\u00a0on cells, cell parts, cell functions, and cell theory in class on\u00a0Wednesday, January 15th<\/strong>. Students should study their vocabulary words, class notes, and materials in Google Classroom to prep for the quiz.
