Can be used for distance learning. Are you covering the characteristics of life with your students? What makes something a cell? What role does DNA play in cells? Do cells need energy? Correlates to NGSS standards: HS-LS1-1 & MS-LS1-1
Students will get a chance to look at statements about viruses and determine if the characteristics of life apply to a virus or not and why.
This utilizes a Claim Evidence Reasoning model and is best as an extension activity after the characteristics of life have been reviewed.
