Mrs. Arcuri handed back the test on the nervous and immune system. Today was an introduction to light and the electromagnetic spectrum. Click here for todays notes. If you were absent, please read section 10.1and 10.3 from your textbook.

Today we finished discussing sexually transmitted infections and how they affect the body. See the links below for the videos watched in class. We also discussed ways to study for tests in science, noting that there is a test on Monday for the nervous and immune system. We moved the test to Monday because there is a test in Math this week. This way you will have enough time to study both.
