Wooden Bowls
When I finished reading this story, I thought it had such a great meaning to it. If I could relate it to C.A.R.E.S, it would be cooperation. At first, the son and the daughter in law could not cooperate with the grandfather, but then towards the end they learned how to cooperate with him. The son and the daughter in law had to realize that he was an old man and he was slowly falling apart. The son should have realized how much that could hurt his father. On the inside and the outside. But since the grandson told them he was making wooden bowls, the son and the daughter in law learned that cooperation is very important.

Basic Genetics
What I learned about Herdity was that we inherit "traits" from our parents. Humans have two sets of of 23 chromosomes. So when the parents have the child, each set is is given to the child, and that' s how the genes get passed down. A trait is a quality or feature in a person. It is passed down from generation to generation. There are physical traits-they way you look, behavioral trait-the way we act, and medical conditions-such as illnesses or diseases.
