    I missed seeing all of you in class last Friday! This week you need to take Module 10 test at home and bring it back to class next Friday. Then begin reading Module 11, pages 439-459, doing your Definitions and OYOs as you read. Make sure you pay attention to Experiment 11.1 and come to class prepared for that – we will be dissecting and observing the structure of different flowers!

    Make sure that you check my post on Band regarding assignments for this week because we weren’t able to meet for class again. There is a quiz, study guide, and a video to watch that you need to write a one page paper on. This week you need to keep doing your work like normal – finish reading Module 10, doing your Definitions and OYOs plus your SGQs and begin studying for your test. Don’t forget to also study the study guide that I posted for you on Band! As a reminder, if you collected pond water, go ahead and dispose of it. If you’re growing mold, keep growing it…

    This week you need to take Module 9 test. I’ve posted that on Band for you to download. I also included some Module 9 notes to help you since we didn’t meet for class this week. After taking the test, you need to start reading Module 10, pages 391-417. Do your Definitions and OYOs as you read. Don’t forget to collect your samples of pond water before the cold weather that is coming! Keep it in a warm place and bring it to class next Friday, please! If you signed up to grow mold, you’ll also need to start growing that this week, but don’t bring it until 1/26. If…

    This week you need to start by finishing up Experiment 9.1 that we started in class. You will need to complete at least five of them (any 5 of your choosing!) and write it out on paper to turn in to me in class Friday. Then read the rest of Module 9, pages 371-385, doing the OYOs and Definitions as you read. You will also need to complete your SGQs and study for the test. Remember that you can also complete Experiment 9.2 for extra credit if you would like to – including a full lab report and pictures sent to me showing you did it. You may also bring…

    It’s our last week of the semester! This week your only assignment is to study for the midterm exam. It will be given in class on Friday. Hopefully the review activity in class last Friday helped you have a better idea of what kind of questions that will be on the exam. This week you also need to get caught up on any of your work from any of the modules that you have not turned in yet. I am being very lenient in allowing you to still turn this in even though it is late – please take this seriously and get it sent to me this week! Several…

    This week, you need to take Module 7 test that I sent home with you before Thanksgiving break. Then, to be ready for class on December 1st, you need to read all of Module 8 and complete the Definitions and OYO’s as you read. You do NOT need to complete the SGQ’s for this module. Don’t forget to send me any of your work from this module or previous modules that you have not turned in yet! This is 20 percent of your overall grade and some of you have not turned in anything in several modules. Also, it is really important that you continue to study this week for…

    This week you need to finish reading Module 7, doing your Definitions and OYO’s as you read. Then complete the study guide and begin studying for the test. Don’t forget to start working on the study for the midterm also – it’s not something you want to put off until the last week! If you do a short section of it every couple of days, you’ll be done soon and can begin studying all of it, so that the midterm is not a major stress! Also, remember to send me pics or video of your completed work so that I can give you credit for having done it! There will…

    This week you need to finish up studying for the Module 6 test and take it at the beginning of the week. Then, begin reading Module 7, pages 253-279, and do your Definitions and OYOs as you read. We will have a short open-book quiz in class on Friday. Remember, you need to stay caught up on all of your assignments so that you don’t get overwhelmed when it’s time to study for the midterm. We only have 3 more class meeting times before the midterm. So, I will bring the study guide information for the midterm to class this week so that you can get started working on that.…

    This week you need to finish reading Module 6, pages 234-246, and do your Definitions and OYOs as you read. Then you need to complete your SGQs and study for your test. We will not have a quiz in class Friday, but we will do Experiment 6.2 so be familiar with that before class. Reminder: you need to STUDY this week for the test. The content of our textbook is not too hard – this is normal for high school level biology courses, but it does require studying. So, first, this is a reminder that you do need to spend time actually studying (memorizing) the study guide and notes from…
