Week of 2/7/16
Snow days Monday and Tuesday have set us back a little so here is the new improved schedule for the week.
AP Biology- Wednesday Lecture on homeostasis with time to set up water potential lab. Thursday we will start class with a brief review of pH followed by reading lab results and calculating water potential for our fruit samples. The Lab will be due Tuesday next week. Friday Red Cabbage as a pH indicator lab. Report Due Wednesday 2/3. Remember we have a quiz scheduled for Monday 2/1on properties of Water.
Biology- Wednesday is a lecture day on DNA replication. Thursday we will watch Photo 51 and complete a review sheet on DNA structure. Sheet needs to be finished Friday we are going to try DNA extraction from cheek cells. Lab will be due on Monday. Remember there is a quiz on Monday!

Short week this week with a lot to cover...
Academic Biology- Wednesday and Thursday you will have time in class to work on your Karyotype project. I would like the completed map and research to be handed in for Friday. Friday will be a review worksheet on DNA with Jeopardy review for Monday and Test Tuesday 2/23.
AP Biology- Our focus is the cell and transport processes. Lecture all day Wednesday. Thursday there is a field trip but those left behind will have an prganelle worksheet. Any remaining time can be used for cell research. Friday we will complete active transport lecture and surface area to volume ratio of cells. Followed by an activity.
Bio II Wednesday Lecture supports for evolution. Friday will be nuttall Precipitation lab.

Happy New Year everyone! I wanted to give you a heads up on what we will be doing between now and exams so you are prepared.
Biology- Monday review to refresh our memories on the light reaction followed by Lecture the steps of the Calvin Cycle. Tuesday comparison of C3 and C4 plants. Wednesday Photosynthesis Quest followed by intro to respiration lecture.
Thursday anaerobic respiration lecture and Friday aerobic respiration lecture. Monday the 11th and Tuesday the 12th will be exam review days Exams start Wednesday 1/13. Since I have 5th and 6th periods each day we will used that time to complete a muscle fatigue Lab.7th period will do the lab on Wednesday 1/20.
AP Bio-We will wrap up evolution before exams sticking to the following schedule(I Hope!) Monday Lecture cladograms followed by a practice worksheet due Tuesday. Tuesday the evolution of behavior followed by how females pick their mates WS due Wednesday. Wednesday the beaks of finches lab due Friday. Thursday Introduce Hardy Weinberg with some practice problems. Friday Fishy frequency Lab due Monday1/11. Monday lecture on speciation poster activity. Tuesday The color of my skin are there different species of humans? followed by review for evolution test which will be Wednesday.
