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!
