BIOLOGY...
Ho ho ho, we are anxiously waiting to see how much bacteria covers the cafeteria tables and nurses doorknob. We are knee deep in our study of one of my favorite topics...Prokaryotes, all of which must be done before Christmas. The entire week will be a mix of lecture and lab work starting with prepared slides on the shapes of bacterial cells on Monday. Tuesday we will Gram stain and identify our own bacteria as well as prepare our plates with antibacterial products. Wednesday quiz and lecture and Thursday we will identify zones of inhibition(hopefully) and evaluate our products for effectiveness. Friday we will finish off our lecture topics and hand in the completed lab reports. Sounds like a full week! Enjoy!
