Thought you-all might enjoy this...

Woo Hoo!  We begin our second semester wrapping up our HIV/AIDS  quilt.  Hopefully you all have enjoyed the art project, and are looking forward to seeing your collective work enshrined on our classroom walls.

Along with the joy comes a responsibility.  As outlined on our classroom whiteboard, here are the notes for what will be on the test on Wed. at Sheldon, and on Thurs. at Churchill.
For those of us visually challenged:
Enjoy your art day.
Outline for 50 point test on Wed.
10 vocab words from handout that came with video "The Age of Aids."
10 Q's from Janet, of the HIV Alliance's presentation.  (think fluids, cells, entry, etc.)
5 Q's from this blog.  (basic questions, and thumb Q's for extra credit)
When I grow up my handwriting will surely improve!

     We are back from our Winter break, and hopefully well rested...
  In our Global Health class we turn our attention toward HIV and AIDS.  This state-mandated topic is important, and built into each year's curriculum.
Our focus will be on the science of HIV and AIDS, the way that our societal values and beliefs influence our dealing with the disease, and how individuals can and have had a profound influence in how this disease is perceived and addressed.
  Using a PBS video: The Age of AIDS, as well as having guest speakers from the HIV Alliance, and culminating in our HIV/AIDS quilt, we will engage this topic from many perspectives.  I think you will enjoy this important and fascinating topic. 
  For snippets of the video, go to You Tube, and enter The Age of AIDS, and go from there.  You can also visit PBS for further readings and links.  (Don't forget the links on the left, in blue.  The center for Disease Control, Web MD, and The New York Times Health Section have a lot of information that is easily accessible)  Additional sites of interest will be referenced in class as we work our way through this unit.
