Biology
This week ends the marking period. Hopefully everyone turned in their cell portfolios. You'll be happy to know that we are still working on cells. Transport and the cell cycle will be our topics for the week. Due for Friday will be a cell cycle lab report and work sheets on the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Quiz will probably be Thursday.
AP Biology
We'll begin Monday with the cell cycle. A brief lab simulation on stage identification will follow. Tuesday will be meiosis...stage identification and comparison to mitosis. Later in the week we will focus on DNA composition and discovery. Photo 51 movie will reinforce this topic.

week of 10/24/11
Biology. We will close our first marking period by ending our discussion on cellular organelles. This week included a quiz on Wednesday and the big cell portfolio assignment due Friday. Remember this counts as a test so be sure you complete it!
AP BIOLOGy.
I was pleased with how well our discussion of photosynthesis went. You really seemed to understand the process. Let's hope respiration goes as well. This will be our topic for the week. The last for the marking period. Quiz will be Thursday and lab notebooks will be due Friday.

Biology.
Onward to chapter 3...Cells are probably a more familiar topic and that is how we will end our 1st marking period. Monday we will still be struggling through the CDT testing so our intro lecture to cells will be Tuesday. Wednesday we will talk organelles getting us ready for our lab on Thursday and Friday. I have a quiz scheduled for Thursday so be ready!
AP BIOLOGY.
We are leaving cells behind and moving into our 2 most difficult topics...photosynthesis and respiration. This week is photosynthesis. Lecture Monday and Tuesday followed by Pigment lab on Wednesday.Remember Lab Notebooks are due on Friday this week!

BIO
Sorry for all the interuptions last week. Unfortunately this week doesn't look much better.Our topic is the chemistry of life. and we begin our week with a quiz and lab on the properties of water. Lab report will be due Wednesday. Tuesday we will finish off the lab and introduce Organic chem. That lecture will cover Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday will probably be a worksheet daythat will carry over onto Friday.
AP Biology.Because of my unexpected kidney stone our schedule sure has been a mess. Hopefully Things can get back to normal soon.We are working with cells again this week with a focus of transport and enzymes as catalysts. Lab Tuesday onto Wed and again on Friday if everything goes according to plan

Biology
Welcome to the last week of September and a topic that's new to our bio course ...Biochem. Hopefully you have some background from 8th grade but just in case we will be starting at the beginning with the periodic table and study of matter. Worksheet on Bohr models due Monday.Tuesday we will discuss properties of water and its' importance to life. Lab on properties of water QWednesday report due Thursday. Thursday will also be quiz day! After the quiz we will attempt to balance some chemical equations which includes a worksheet due Friday.
AP Biology
Hopefully you are enjoying the familar topic of cells. They will be our focus for the entire week.Expect a minimium of 2 or 3 labs, cellular in nature,throughout the week with a due date to be announced. Remember there is an organic quiz on Monday.

Hope you had a great week last week! I was very pleased with all of your effort! Keep up the good work. This week starts with a lab on experimintal design Finished report due Wednesday. Wednesday we will finish the lab and have our first QUIZ. Thursday begins a new topic with lecture on the characteristics of life which will carry over onto Friday.
AP BIOLOGY
Well we have 2 chapters of notes under our belts... Only 24 to go. Tuesday will be lab day on pH. Remember notebooks are due Friday. Wednesday Quiz on Themes and properties of water. Second period will start our new lecture on organic compounds. Polymer lab is scheduled for Thursday with lecture on amino acids an nucleic acids on Friday. A friendly warning Stay current with your assignments or you will get sooooooo overwhelmed it won't be pretty.
