Now that exams are behind us its time to start the 3rd marking period. The good news is it's my favorite topic GENETICS and I hope you'll love it too.This is the tentative weeks schedule:
Tuesday- lecture early theories on the formation of offspring
Wednesday-lecture Mendels genetics and Punnett squares. There will be a practice worksheet.
Thursday-Friday- Coin toss lab with calculations.Lab report to be completed for Friday.
AP Biology
Tuesday- wrap up for semester 1
Wednesday- new class-Lecture Themes of Biology
Thursday-Review worksheet on chem with lecture on properties of water.

Welcome back. Hope you had a great vacation and are refreshed and ready for your exams. Thats what we will be doing for the most part this week. On Tuesday we will complete our manditory writing prompt for the marking period. It will be graded and due on Wednesday. Wednesday will be an exam study guide work day. We will check how well you did on Thursday when we cover topics that will be included on the exam. Friday our review focus will be DNA emphasis on replication and protein synthesis. Monday,the last day before exams, will be our jeopardy review
. Please make the best of our review time!
AP Biology
Welcome back. We start our week with some echinoderm lecture. Which leads directly into dissection lab. That covers Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday will be an exam study guide which you will work on in teams. Friday we will focus our review on any topics you have questions on as well as check the study guide together. Monday the last day before exams will be Jeopardy review. Start studying early alittle each night will make a big difference.

Week of November november 29 2011
BIOLOGY
Hope you all had a happy and restful Thanksgiving. We are going to pick up right where we left off...PHOTOSYNTH#ESIS.Tuesday we will discuss the why and how for each of the light cycle steps and do the same for the light independent on Tuesday. A work sheet will wrap us up and hopefully reinforce any concepts that are still fuzzy.
Thursday and Friday will be respiration discussion with a lab tossed in for good measure.
AP BIOLOGY
We are smack dab in the middle of our evolution topic. Tuesday we will talk about Hardy Weinberg and learn how to apply the concept to a population. Wed will be a fishy lab that supports H.W.there will be a practice problem sheet and lots of calculations and graphing.Sounds like fun doesn't it? Thursday looks like lecture on behaviors and a lab if there is time.If not the lab shifts to Friday.

We'll wrap up the cell cycle and meisis this week with some reinforcement worksheets on Monday, Jeopardy review on Tuesday and our TEST on wednesday. The next topic is a rough one...Photosynthesi and respiration. Lecture is planned for Thursday and probably into Friday.
AP Biology
We are zipping through one of your favorite topics...Genetics. Monday we will lecture on probability of events and try some practice problems. Tuesday will be a test on PunnettSquares and Probability. Lecture is moving Beyond Classical Genetics into genes that don't follow the rules. This week we have one lab on DNA fingerprinting scheduled.

WEEK OF NOVEMBER 7 2011
BIOLOGY
We start our week with a lab on the cell cycle. You'll get a chance to test your skill at identifying different stages of the cycle in onion root tip. Report will be due Wednesday. Wednesday we will lecture meiosis compare the steps and the outcome with the cell cycle. Thursday we will wrap up the lecture and complete a worksheet on the cell cycle and meiosis.Enjoy your long weekend!

week of 10/31/11
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.
