IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL!

THE PARTY'S OVER, BUT THE PUZZLE REMAINS! CONCLUSION

PIECES OF THE PUZZLE

Well, it is that time again. You have completed another unit and as always we want to remind you that there is so much more to learn about micro organisms. Exactly how big are the micro organisms that you learned about? Just how many monerans, protists, fungi and viruses have been discovered by scientists? How many more species of these tiny creatures might be living on Earth yet undiscovered? How many of them might pose a future threat to human life. How is the rainforest associated with some of the most deadly viruses? And the list goes on. One thing is for sure. There are still many missing pieces of this great life puzzle on this third rock from the sun. Perhaps you will be able to find a piece of the puzzle. And just maybe, you may be involved in finding out where it fits.

THE PARTY'S OVER

Maybe you really haven't thought much about the Sixth Grade Sciber Site being a party, but we hope that you have at least had some fun reading, researching, exploring and doing. If you think about it, you can refer back to this site in your future studies. After all, you never know when you will run into a "Moneran" again. In the mean time, remember you don't have to be a "rocket scientist to be a "scientist". If you completed at least some of the activities on the pages of this site, you have "gone boldly and bravely where no man has gone before." Well, maybe not, but you are doing some pretty good science. Have a great summer and we will see you next year at the "Seventh Grade Sciber Site"!

YOU ARE A SUPER SCIENTIST!!!
