7th & 8th Grade General Science: Today, Ms. Smith's Homeroom had science class and continued to learn about genetic engineering. They watched a short video about scientists who genetically engineered a goat to produce the protein used to make "spider silk" (webs). Students then began an assignment where they make a proposal to genetically engineer a new organism that combines the advantageous traits of one organism into another. This assignment is due tomorrow if students did not finish it during class. The second science class finished listening to the 8th grade GPS project presentations. They will move back into a regular science schedule tomorrow.
