SCIENCE-

• We started with a BrainPop vid about cells-https://www.brainpop.com/science/cellularlifeandgenetics/cells/
• and then one about cell structures-
• https://www.brainpop.com/science/cellularlifeandgenetics/cellstructures/
• We then talked about DIFFUSION-
• Students filled out a sheet while we went through various activities-
• From the movie Grown-Ups-
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz4VT9zHLTU&feature=em-share_video_user
• Write this definition in your notebook-
• 
  

  Diffusion:  The movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to low concentration until equilibrium is reached.

We watched another BrainPop-DIFFUSION
