Research Topics Answer each question in complete sentences in your science notebook. What disease did you chose to research? How is the disease spread? What are the symptoms of the disease? Who gets your disease? How can your disease be treated? What is the cure (if there is one)? What is the ongoing research for the disease? Can the disease change it’s form? What are 5 extra facts about your disease?

Assignment: PSA (Monday and Tuesday) – Smart lab Your task is to create a public service announcement that is at least 6 blocks long and fills up the page. We need to know the who (who is at risk?), the what (what are the symptoms?), and the how (how is it contracted/spread?)about your disease. Your final PSA needs to be attached with your research/summary paper.

Assignment: Essay Turn your research into an essay. 5 paragraphs (Intro, who, what, how, and conclusion) -3-5 sentences The who, what and how of your disease Why did you pick this disease.
