1. September 29 Warm-up: In your journal answer the following question: Can you kill something that is not alive? Provide reasoning for your answer

2. Discuss your thoughts with your group first As a class, do we think you can kill something that is not alive?

3. Now…Title your journal page “Viruses” Create a circle map in your journal and put in all the things that you know about viruses – This can include descriptions, examples and vocabulary words

4. The objective for today is: To learn the structures of viruses To compare viral structures to the structure of cells Watch the video and answer these questions as you watch: 1.What is a host cell? 2.What happens when a virus gets inside a cell? 3.Where are places that you come into contact with viruses? 4.What weapons do we have to fight viruses? https://youtu.be/UEKS4w9bfJg

5. So let’s answer the questions now and write these in our notebook 1.What is a host cell? 2.What happens when a virus gets inside a cell? 3.Where are places that you come into contact with viruses? 4.What weapons do we have to fight viruses?

6. You will get a copy of Virus Video notes that you will fill in as you progress through the next video. Paste these into your notebook and answer the questions as you watch the video. https://www.youtube.com/w atch?v=f-ApyHtAONU

7. Stop and Compare Compare your notes from the video to what you put in your circle map. Complete the following sentence as evidence of your learning today: In my circle map, I did not include ___________ but after watching the video, I would include it. This is an important piece of information as we learn about viruses because __________________________.

8. Take a 5 minutes to draw these structures… label the following: Genetic material Capsid Glycoprotein Where the virus attaches to a cell

9. Let’s take a moment… Yesterday, we talked about prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Create a double bubble map comparing cells and viruses

10. Let’s Share Share your double-bubble map with your group Each group will be responsible for adding at least one bubble as we create a class double- bubble on the board

11. Closing In your journal, answer the following question: A scientist, observes that cucumber plants in a garden are losing leaves while the cucumbers appear to be rotting. He takes samples of the diseased plant, prepared slides, and looks at the slides under a microscope. Because he cannot see anything abnormal, he hypothesizes that the disease is caused by a virus that is so small it cannot be seen under his microscope. What structures would he need to identify in order to PROVE that it is a virus that is causing the issue? – THIS IS A GRADE!!!
