BIOLOGY
By now you are all Punnett square experts...I hope. Monday this week will be our Punnett square review(square races). Tuesday is test day. The remainder of the week will focus on humans as subjects for genetic study. We will cover twins, blood typing, and family pedigrees. I'm planning a quiz on that material for Friday. We will have several activities throughout the week that may require finishing at home.
AP BIOLOGY
Last Friday wrapped up our discussion on cells. That means we are ready for a review and Test Monday and Tuesday this week. Following the review Monday there should be some time for independent study and/or lab completion. Notebooks will be collected Wednesday and should include: Coacervates, cell structures, cell fractionation, and both enzyme activities. The enzyme lab needs a conclusion as well as analysis questions. Our next topic will be energy pathways, respiration and photosynthesis. These are the 2 toughest topics of the year so stay on top of things.

This week we are starting working with Punnett Squares. We will learn how we can turn traits into probability(everyone loves math). Unfortunately this is one of those topics that you are either really good at or NOT!!! Please try to be in class so you don"t miss any of the basics that will put you behind. We will be doing one in class activity later in the week with a report due by Friday. NO quizzes or tests are planned!

This week we will continue with Cells as our focus. We have to wrap up the coacervate lab on Tuesday...stay current with reports labs will be fast and furious over the next few days. I'm planning a 2 period lecture for Wednesday with wrap up on Thrusday. Thursday and Friday will be labs ...Organelles and Cell Fractionation.

BIOLOGY
Well the groundhog saw his shadow...6 more weeks of winter, there's a surprise. Our plan for the week is to complete chapter 9 lecture. We will look at Meiosis and the production of sperm and egg as well as mutations that can occur with their resulting conditions. Our quiz this week will be Thursday with writing prompt due Tuesday and karyotype activity due Friday.
AP BIOLOGY
This weeks focus will be organic chem and the production of polymers from monomers. Lab notebooks are to be handed in Monday. We will be working on a set of organic activities Wed and Thurs that will be due Mon Feb 9. There are several worksheets that will be assigned withWed as the due date.
