    This week you need to take Module 3 test that I gave you at the end of class Friday. Then begin reading Module 4, pages 137-160. Make sure you do the Definitions and OYO’s as you read. There will be an open-book quiz at the beginning of class, and we will also do Experiment 4.1. If you would like to earn some extra credit points to add to a test grade of your choosing, you may complete a Cell Project. You can earn up to 20 extra points, depending on how much effort you put into this project and how closely you follow the directions. You will be building a…

    This week you need to take Module 2 test that I sent home with you from class. If you didn’t get one, please let me know and I can email it to you. I ended up with some extra copies of the test after class, so I’m thinking some of you may not have it! Then, breathe a sigh of relief and start reading Module 3 on Ecology (this should be a much easier module than the last one!) – pages 85-110. Make sure you do the Definitions and OYO’s as you read. We will have a short open-book quiz at the beginning of class. Please make sure you pay…

    This week you need to finish reading Module 1, completing your definitions and OYO’s as you read. Then complete the Study Guide Questions (SGQ’s) and start studying for the test. Please make sure that you pay careful attention to Experiment 1.1 because we will be doing most (or all, if time allows) of this in class on Friday. There will not be a quiz in class this week so that we have time to complete the lab. Please bring all of your completed work from Module 1 to class with you so that I can check your work. See y’all Friday!

    Hey everyone! I am looking forward to being in class with all of you this coming Friday. This week you need to begin reading Module 1 in our textbook, pages 1-21. Please make sure to answer the On Your Own (OYO’s) questions as you read. These are set aside from the body of the text in gold boxes. You can either write the OYO’s out on notebook paper, type them, or fill them out in the student notebook that goes along with the textbook if you bought that. It does not matter to me where you do them, as long as you do them! Also, as you read, please make…

    Great work this year! We had a good review of all of the systems of the body while dissecting fetal pigs this past week. I am proud of the work you’ve accomplished this year! I will be grading your last tests and will have them to give back to you next Friday so please find me to get them. No lab report due on the fetal pig dissection. If you are not exempt from the final exam, make sure you study for the exam, and let me know if you have any questions! If you are exempt, I will be sending out your final averages sometime this week via email.

    This week you need to take Module 15 test that I sent home with you from class. After that, if you’re taking the final exam, you need to begin studying for the final exam. I have given you everything that you need to know for it, but it does cover a lot of information, so don’t put off studying until the last week! This Friday in class we will continue with the fetal pig dissections, and then our last week the final exam will be given in class.
