Welcome Back... From Spring Break...

"Getting Back into the Flow" is the message for this week. Botany students, we're beginning a new unit. Photosynthesis, plant hormones, plant movement and plant response will be our main topics. I you are an Anatomy/Physiology student, then you will be wrapping up the nervous system and testing next Tuesday. Finally, Environmental Science students: We will be discussing the last bit of material from Unit Two this week and assessing that unit next Monday... Good luck getting back into the flow, and let's finish the year out strong!

Anatomy/Physiology and Botany...

CONGRATULATIONS!

If you are in one of the aforementioned classes, you are officially on Spring Break! Botany students, we will be picking up with Plant Processes (i.e. photosynthesis) and Responses when we get back from break. That will be chapters 6 and 31 for those of you that just can't possibly wait...

Anatomy and Physiology students, please complete the PNS colorings and read pages 187-201. That's it, your only homework for the next 10 days. Also, we will be having our Unit 10 test over the Nervous System on Friday, April 8th...

Have a safe and fun Spring Break, and come back ready to roll...

A&P Students: Regarding That Answer Key...

For some reason, I have not be allowed to upload the document that has the answer key for your formative assessment. I do not know if the file is corrupt, or if I accidently saved it as a temporary file and currently do not have access to it over the web. Anyways, we will grade the formative assessment and the diagram at the beginning of class tomorro, then take the summative exam in the second half. Do not fret, do not worry, all will be well...

Dr. Frankenstein...

Today, Block 2 Anatomy and Physiology students were furthering their knowledge and understanding of the muscular system by applying clay "muscles" to our "Frankenstein Monster" models. Our Anatomy and Physiology class is currently deep into the muscular system and will be testing next Tuesday...
