Use your provided copy to organize your research. You will also be making a copy of another research document in which I provide resources for you to begin researching.

Attach your final project (video, poster, brochure, etc). If you are using a website like canva, make sure that I have access to the project. 
REMEMBER: this is a summative project meaning it goes in the same (80%) category as your tests. This project will account for approx 26% of your overall grade. READ THE RUBRIC and make sure its complete before submitting.

In a couple weeks you will begin working on your final project for winter term.  The purpose of this project is to empower students to advocate for their health and lifelong wellness.  One of the best tools we have for preventing illness and disease over our lifetimes is the knowledge of our family history.  As part of the project, you are asked to gather information about medical conditions experienced by members of your immediate and extended families. Students who may have little or no access to information about blood relatives can complete this research on their adopted or guardian family. Students who were donor conceived are also welcomed to complete this research from the parent(s) in your life. Besides genetics, our shared environment, habits and cultural traditions also play an important role in influencing overall health. The information gathered in this project is for the student, not for me their teacher.  You will use this information to inform your final project, but I won't receive a copy of any of the answers provided by your family. This will be your personal data to analyze. 


So, in preparation for our final project, please find the URL below and copy and paste it into a new internet window. This will force you to make a personal copy of this Family Health History Google Form that you can edit and send it to family members. This google form will will help you learn about your family’s health history and get ideas for your final project. Mark as done once your copy has been made and begin sending it to your family so that you will have the data you need to begin our final project on March 16th

What factors are associated with cancer and how do they affect the cell cycle?


After completing your research and draft paper, type your CER into a google doc and attach it to this assignment. Remember to use the rubric- shoot for a 4/4 in both categories. 

For a 4/4 in the evidence section, one of the factors discussed should be new/not discussed in the videos. You're welcome to research for this, but need to cite your source in text. For example: According to the Mayo Clinic's Article "Cancer...", ...
