Friday

On Friday we watched the coolest movie: "The Unknown Universe" highlighting microphotography (an intrest of mine) and really showing you what modern microscopy can do! Enjoy!

Absent? Come check the movie out from me on Monday if you are interested!

Day 3 in biology

Today and yesterday in biology we looked at protists in pond water under the microscope. There was also a small lab sheet that went along with it (not online, in the make-up work box). All other available time was spent on reviewing for the test on Tue./Wed. of next week!

Chapters 19-20, review all notes, guided readings, labs- there is also a review that I will make available online on Monday. Sorry for the delay!

Day 2 in Biology

Day 2 in biology I stamped the Chapter 20 guided reading on Protists, we went over our vocab quizzes, chapters 19-20 guided readings. At the end of class we worked on the paramecium coloring- not yet online but pick one up from the make-up work box.

Have a lovely day!

Monday in Biology

Monday!

- We turned in our Chapter 19 guided reading to the box
- We spent the whole time in the LRC doing work on our disease project, due day 2

When you present, it's only going to be 3-4 minutes. Focus the majority of your work on a quality paper. A few photos and a diagram on a PowerPoint or poster work just fine for your visual.

5th period ONLY:
We are finishing up our virus notes on Monday, learning about Protists and trying a vocab whiteboard challenge! Your LRC work day is Tuesday and your presentations are Wednesday.
