Emerging Diseases and Pandemics

Good Morning! (or afternoon)

Go here:

http://www.who.int/csr/disease/en/
OR
http://www.usaid.gov/what-we-do/global-health/pandemic-influenza-and-other-emerging-threats

Do This:

Summarize two different diseases in notability.   Write about a disease that is considered a communicable disease that could become a pandemic or large scale illness.   Use your own words to summarize this article.  PLEASE do not copy and paste.

A few of you will be asked to "peer teach" your disease to the class tomorrow.  Please have pictures on your presentation.  Make this a presentation as if you WILL be teaching it.  You don't know who will be picked!

Some things to consider:   How is it spread? What is the likelihood that it will occur?  Has it occurred before?  Do we have a vaccine?  Can we keep it from spreading? Where are the "hot spots" or places where this illness have a high rate of infection?  What is the likelihood that this WILL occur?

Your presentation should be five minutes in length.

Meth!

Hey there!  Today is a fantastic day if you want it to be!  :)

Go here:

http://adamhscc.org/en-us/facts-meth.aspx

Read and write in your own words about the different types of meth.  A couple paragraphs or "bullet lists" should be fine.  :)

Then go here!

http://www.thegooddrugsguide.com/amphetamines/basics.htm

Use the street names and categorize the drug (what type is it…how popular is it…what are the side effects….are they different?)

Add what you find to the writeup above.    What questions do you have about meth?

Finally, there are several articles out there stating that meth isn't that bad.  Please research it and find out what they have to say.

**Why are we doing this?   We have a guest speaker on Friday.  I want you to be know a bit more about meth when they show up.   Is meth really that bad?   Let's find out!  :)

Enjoy the day!

Brain Development & Teens

Good Day Summit Health!

As we continue to research drugs, I think it's important to understand our brains and why teenagers tend to behave differently than adults.   Here is some GREAT research that explains it pretty well:

http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/inside-the-mind/human-brain/teenage-brain1.htm

Please go to the link, read it and highlight the points that might explain why we (teens) tend to engage in what we consider risky behaviors.

Now go here:

http://www.education.com/reference/article/brain-differences-boys-girls/

After reading both articles, please extrapolate (what does this mean) important information and write about what you found.   I would like two paragraphs actually written on paper explaining what you learned (or what was reinforced) about why teens engage in risky behaviors and what the differences are between boys and girls brain development.

This assignment should be between 1/2 and one full page if you include appropriate information.  WE WILL HAVE AN EXAM ON THIS INFORMATION AS I FEEL IT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN KNOWING WHAT IS IN THE DRUGS THAT KIDS EXPERIMENT WITH!!!  Make sure you understand what's happening in our brains!  :)

Please turn in a HARD COPY to our inboxes.

Here is what we're doing today.   Please go to the following link:

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/teen-angst/201301/teen-binge-drinking-all-too-common

You should read the article and write a short reflection on what you think about the facts and statistics.

  1. Do you have your own personal opinions about why kids at Summit drink?
  2. Do you believe it's dangerous?
  3. Do you have any suggestions for how to reduce teenage binge drinking?
  4. What are your personal restrictions on drinking…or your personal boundaries?
Please turn these into the dropbox at the end of class today.  DUE TODAY.  NO LATER!

Thanks!

The truth about marijuana

Good Morning!

Here is what we're doing today!

Go to:  http://www.drugfreeworld.org/drugfacts/marijuana.html  and  http://headsup.scholastic.com/articles/endocannabinoid

Read and pull out any information you can from this article.  You CAN copy and paste this information.

Then…..research and find opinions that counter (or are of the opposing opinion) what you found above.

Then…. create a half page paper of your own thoughts on marijuana.

Some direction for you:

Do you think it's dangerous?
Would you ever try it (if you have…does this change your opinion?)
Should high school kids use marijuana?
Should we legalize it?
Should we have legal dispensaries? (places that sell it)
Any other thoughts you might have about the drug would be good to add in.

Please turn this in to my drop box.

Cancer Analogy

Good Morning!

Please welcome Mrs. Fallon to our class with warm smiles and respect.  Mrs Fallon is one of my all time favorites and we are lucky to have her as a sub.

Today:

"Cancer Analogy"

Using appropriate terminology from the board, please write a one page cancer analogy. You will have to be specific and creative.  The example of "Cancer is like a weed" cannot be used.  However, the concept can be.  "Cancer is like a weed".  If not controlled and exterminated, the dandelion will spread (metastasize) to other parts of the field.  Etc…etc….etc.   Over the years, I've had some GREAT analogies.  Will yours be?

Please have this turned in by the end of the class period.   Use the drop box in studentvue.

Thanks!
