Messy Monday

First, the organized stuff:
  • All classes have Vocabulary Quiz 1 tomorrow (20 questions matching scientific terms to their definitions)
  • Friday there is an assembly schedule.  If you have 1st period open you need to be at school by 8:15!
  • If you are interested in the Youth Ethics Summit on April 9th from 10-4 you need to register at http://nwabr.kintera.org/11yes by April 1st
Now the less organized stuff:
Almost every class did something different today.
  • 2nd and 3rd period performed AP Lab 8: Population Genetics, which is more of an activity than and actual lab.  To review the main concepts from this lab go to http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/labbench/lab8/intro.html
  • 5th period gathered data from the Fruit Fly crosses and used that data to determine which allele was dominant for each eye color gene.  You will receive further data at a future date.
  • 6th period reviewed both the information from the Population Genetics Lab (see 2nd and 3rd period note) and the fly data collection (see p. 5 note).  We then attempted to view the Evolutionary Arms Race, but ran into technical difficulties.  The last 10 minutes were spent studying for tomorrow's vocabulary quiz.
