I will use a modeling activity in conjunction with the corona virus discussion we have going in our science class. The students will be asked to research the spread of this disease and draw a diagram that explains how it is spread from person to person. This diagram will include how many people can be infected by one person and show how it multiplies with the next person and so on.

I love this idea as it is extremely relevant. Are you familiar with the glitter experiments? You use glitter on your hands and as you touch items, the glitter is transfered from your hands to the item and if a student touches the same item, they have glitter on their hands. It's a wonderrful visual experiment and you can see a description here.
I'm looking forward to learning about your student outcomes after this lesson.
