This stuff applies to real life because, real scientists are facing the same questions.

This past week
This week we started to work on a school wide problem in another district. Mr. Segan was asked to help a school figure out if they had a health problem. We had to solve it. I was working with Derek. One-third of band class was absent in the project. Friday, we had an easy quiz and I have a chance to correct my old quiz. I was out Thursday, due to a trumpet lesson.

Science Notes
In class we talked about viruses, bacteria, and parasites. We said a bunch of stuff about other classes until we got to viruses. Then we talked about non-living stuff from viruses. We were given homework to write a list of 10 living and a list of 10 non-living things. We defined life itself. A living being's species is able to reproduce on its own power, grow, move (plants have seeds), and have homeostasis (a constant condition).
I think that the science stuff could have helped a scientist in the period after they got the names but were looking for traits to share. They could also be classing a new microbe, or seeing if they accidently made life.
