January 5th Through 9th.  The grade eight health class worked towards the Alcohol Assessment.  Each student should have five lesson outlines that highlight important information covered throughout the alcohol chapter.  The five lesson outlines are as follows;  Why Alcohol is Harmful, Short-Term Effects of Alcohol Use, Long-Term Effects of Alcohol Use, Alcohol Abuse & Alcoholism, Getting For Alcohol Abuse.  All of the information needed to study for the Alcohol Assessment is included in the five lesson outlines.  For the assessment, each student will be given a note card.  The students should put information they feel will be on the assessment onto their note card.  Students will be allowed to use their note card as a resource while taking the assessment.  Students are encouraged to study all five lesson outlines as well as the alcohol-related prezis to prepare for the assessment.  Also, any lesson outline that does not have a grade on it, should be turned in to be graded.  Any lesson outline without a grade is currently a zero.  In other news, any student that has not turned in their alcohol research prezi should do so as soon as possible.  The alcohol research prezi is a major assessment grade.  Any student that is having difficulty with their project should see me.  Thank-you for your time.

December 1st through 5th.  Grade Eight Health continues to explore the alcohol chapter.  The next lesson in the alcohol chapter is entitled, "Short-Term Effects of Alcohol Use".  It is important for the students to understand that alcohol negatively impacts an individual's ability to respond quickly and appropriately to situations.  We will also define important terms related to alcohol such as intoxication and blood alcohol content. We also explore how alcohol affects each individual differently.  We will identify six different factors that determine the effect that alcohol has on an individual.  We will also identify the three different categories of alcoholic beverages and their varying alcohol content.  Lastly, we will discuss how alcohol consumption can negatively impact our ability to utilize nutrients.  This is often overlooked by most. Students will also be given an opportunity to present their, "All About Me" Prezi to their classmates.  If a student has not, they need to understand that they have a zero for a minor assessment grade.  Any student that is having a problem sharing their prezi, they should see me as soon as possible. Finally, we will have a alcohol system quiz in the near future.  It will consist of twenty questions (short answer and matching).  Stay tuned for details.
