As for science, we have begun discussing cell structures and functions. We discussed the cell wall, cell membrance, and organelles such as the nucleus, ribosomes, chromosomes, chromatin, nucleolus, and more. The homework for the week is to construct a scientific drawing of either a plant or animal cell. It should be neatly done, colored, and labeled.
We are also sad to see Spencer leave this week. We wish him the best in Galveston and hope he will come back soon!
Have a super week!
