BIOLOGY
Welcome Back...You are so Lucky to have Bio this year!!!
We aren't going to waste any time... so after our welcome, rules etc. on Monday we are going to Lecture themes of Biology on Tuesday. Wednesday will be an activity on scientifically valid articles which might need to be finished at home. Thursday ...Lecture on scientific method followed by a Friday activity about observation/inferences.
Ap Bio
Glad to have so many familiar faces back again. Hope you are ready for a lot of hard work! Ap bio is challenging to say the least so stay on top of things! With that said...
We will start on Monday with a lecture /review on themes of biology and characteristics of life. It's a refresher so we will move quickly! Tuesday ...scientific method lecture followed by some worksheets. Thursday...lecture properties of water followed by a quick lab that may carry over to Friday. I always try to mix up each double period with labs worksheets presentations etc. so we don't have 2 periods of lecture. Having 2-3 labs a week means lots of reports so stay current!

Hope you enjoyed working with Jellyfish. We will use Monday to finish off the lab and spend a little time reviewing for Tuesday sponge and jelly test. The test will be 50 points. The remainder of the week will focus on Worms unfortunately we have a lot of lecture before we get to our next dissection, earthworms, early next week.
APBiology
With only 14 days to go we still have a lot to cover. Our focus this week will be animals. Lecture will intro classification,patterns of development germ layers etc. Our focus animal will be the starfish. Tuesday will start lecture and dissection will follow. There will be a report to go along with your dissection Due Thursday.

Week of 4/26
Biology
Monday test review.... Tuesday test on ecology. The material isn't difficult but there is a lot so study!Wednesday makeup tests and intro to the animal kingdom. If all goes well with Thursdays lecture we will be ready to focus on the jelly fish in lecture Friday and lab Monday.
Ap Biology...
We will finish with evolution this week. Monday is a Quiz and lab on beaks. Tuesday we will lecture odds and ends to wrap up our topic and check review worksheet. Wednesday will be review day and Thursday we will begin our new topic in lecture. Friday will be a test on Genetics and Evolution. It's a big one so be ready!

BIOLOGY
Our mini-unit on ecology is moving along nicely. Monday this week will start with a lecture on population sampling and an activity on random sampling that will finish the period. We probably won't have time to finish the analysis questions so they become homework. TuesdayPopulation curves lecture asnd activityon survivorship curves. Wednesday succession lecture with worksheet on predation verses starvation. Thursday in honor of earthday we will focus on our ecological footprints ending the week with natural resources and pollution. Test is scheduled for Tuesday next week!
AP Biology
This week will continue evolution. Monday will be lecture on speciation with some worksheet time. Tuesday we get to bring a little math to our class with Hardy Weinberg problems. Lab notebooks are due ! Wednesday will be our Fishy frequency lab.Thursday' discussion will be on the evolution of behavior. Friday"s lab will be "Feeding Frenzie"Make sure you are working on the Who came to Dinner assignment.

BIOLOGY
We enter the last marking period with the topic of ecology. It will be a 2 week mini lesson which we will start with lecture on Monday. Follow up will include a worksheet on food webs due Tuesday.Tuesday our focus will be biomes and natural cycles.Wednesday's activity will test your biome knowledge.Thursday and Friday will follow the same lesson worksheet format with a Quiz scheduled for early next week.
AP Biology
We introduced DNA last week with the development of the Double Helix Model. This weeks lecture and activities will take us through Replication AND protein Synthesis. We will schedule a quiz for Friday this week.
