Junkyard Wars

Don't forget to bring in your team's junk box! All of your collected materials should be inside a labeled shoe box and stored in the designated area of the classroom. I can't wait to begin tomorrow!

NO STUDY SESSION FRIDAY

My apologies students, but there will not be a study session Friday morning at 8:15. I forgot that we have a mandatory staff meeting at 8:00 AM. Again, I am sorry for this inconvenience.

CRCT Review

Please complete the first six sections of your CRCT review packet. We will complete the final section, Evolution, in class on Friday.

Test and Homework

Chapter 3 and 4 Test is on Friday, April 18th. Study guides were distributed in class today and are worth five bonus points when signed by a parent. There will be a study session Friday morning at 8:15. Please report to the theatre before coming to my room.

Monday HW

Quiz Tomorrow

Third and Fourth period students will have a quiz on genetics tomorrow. The quiz will cover homozygous and heterozygous traits, dominant and recessive traits, genotypes and phenotypes, Punnett Squares, and probabilities.

AC Students - Your "Design a Species" project is due tomorrow.

AC - Design a Species

On Thursday, you should enter the classroom with Step One of your project complete. In other words, you need to have your alleles and physical characteristics set up for each of the five traits, just like the sample on the back of your instruction sheet. Here is a copy in case you lost yours...like you ever would. =)
