Details, details, details!

Mr. Barth’s Classroom Update

In biology, we are continuing our work on our fruit fly lab reports.  Many of you have a great introduction started and have typed out your journal entries.  Continue to fine tune and “polish” your work.  Make sure you have completed a true-bred vial so we can begin our first filial cross within the coming weeks.  Remember to study!

Physiology II is still working on their dissections!  You just completed the digestive system and will soon begin a reproduction unit.  You’ve all become skilled lab students and have created some great results this semester.  Remember to stay on top of your SISK12 grades and continue to ask questions!

Lab science is working on a human disease and homeostasis review activity.  Within the week, you will present your findings to the class and provide us with review materials.  You’re the doctor, teach us!  Don’t forget to spend a little time outside of class preparing for assignments and tests.  A little extra time goes a long way!

Keep up the good work everyone!
