They will be given a cup of UV beads and then apply different variables and document the color changes of the beads.  The variables will include direct sunlight, shade, sunglasses, clothing, and different levels of SPF sunscreen.  They will upload their photo data to a Padlet board then write a summary of what they learned.  A touch of research will include what happens to our skin and eyes with excessive UV sunlight exposure and why it's important to minimize time spent in the sun unprotected.]]> 2022-10-05 21:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2328297797 https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2409163913 Students will work on a video where they will let their patient know about burns. They can also create a brochure about the burn degrees and their treatment. ]]> 2022-12-05 14:02:15 UTC https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2409163913 amysharpe1_1 https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2413467315 Students watched a video about the Montreal Protocol after a discussion about the ozone layer and how it protects us from uv radiation. They then completed a discussion board about the ozone layer.]]> 2022-12-07 20:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2413467315 samanthaortega6_1 https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2414630933 Students first watched the following video on the science behind why tattoos are permanent https://www.acs.org/pressroom/reactions/library/why-are-tattoos-permanent.html 

They then had a choice to read between three different articles and write a brief summary of what they found interesting.  This led to some conversations on the safety of tattoos.  

To complete the discussion, we did a fun activity of using koolaid, cornstarch, and water to draw "tattoos"]]> 2022-12-08 17:20:33 UTC https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2414630933 anissasamilpa2_1 https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2416523900 Students will read, annotate and complete a poetic analysis for the poem "Scars" by Daniel Halpern.  Using a script, students will interview a person with a major scar.  They will collect information about the person's experience and how bearing a scar(s) has impacted their life.  Students will then write a free verse poem about a scar from the perspective of a patient/survivor.  They will use information collected from their interview, medical language from other classes and poetic devices to produce their poem. ]]> 2022-12-10 20:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2416523900 dncavazos2 https://padlet.com/marisolprado1_1/4yz7nl4gzv0a9wv0/wish/2423322745 Students designed geometric tattoos.
