In science, we were learning about cells and infectious diseases.  Our statement of inquiry is:  Understanding cellular systems and functions, allows humans to avoid the consequences of infectious diseases and prevent global pandemics. We learned that when people get infected by a virus, only the immune system can fight and kill the virus.  We cannot take antibiotics to kill viruses, only bacteria can be killed by antibiotics.  Therefore, if there is a virus outbreak in our community, then we need to take specific precautions to slow the spread of the virus and stop it from becoming an epidemic or pandemic.

The students in science worked in cooperative groups to make public service announcements to help the community combat the virus. Watch the video below to see what grade 6 students have been learning, and remember to do your part as we continue to fight Covid-19 and the many different strands of Covid-19.
