Additional Information

This would be an activity for 8th grade. We would like the same activity presented to two different schools on two different dates. The dates are Monday, November 5th and Monday, November 26th. At one school, there are 2 teachers with 4 classes each that would need to be served simultaneously with the activity. They have 204 students split over the 8 classes.

At the other school, there are 3 teachers with 4 classrooms each, I think. There are a total of 261 students at that school who will need to be served by your activity. We would like an activity that would be very engaging and high interest for middle school students. We also would love for it to address the Bio Technology, bio molecules, dna fingerprinting parts of the 8th grade standards. But we are also open to hearing about your ideas. For example, we loved the zombie idea on your website due to its engagement possibilities. You would have about an hour for each presentation. Would love to hear from you soon.

8th grade at two schools over 2 dates.
