Word up Science people. It's been awhile since I've updated. Integrated Bio and such, I've moved over to Iportal for those students who've been following. You can see it at iportal.4j.lane.edu. Login in with your username and password that'd you would normally use to get on to the 'nets at school.
Night school peeps!! Check here to see what you may have missed in class and for links to download the notes and any missing worksheets.
I'll also post about any cool things I run across in my own browsing of the internet that I feel you should see or talk about during class. Check back often.
Later,

Week of January 18th
Not a lot of updates this week as we've mostly been working on our puppet shows.
A Day classes need to be ready to go on Monday while B days classes will present on Tuesday. I'm really excited for all the projects and your puppets look great.
We will be testing breifly (about 15 questions, multiple-choice) on Wednesday (our final day) and then I'll see you next semester.

January 10/11th, Monday/Tuesday
Whoops,
Sorry, missed a day last week. We did a nice cell lab looking at three different types of cells; an onion, cheek and tomato cell under the microscopes. The labs were due at the end of class.
Today we quickly went through some of our Cell Organelle notes. I highly encourage that you download these notes and study them in great detail to be successful on the test. Also, they'll really help with your cell puppet show.
The puppet show is what we spent the second half of class on. We got in our groups, assigned group roles and wrote up a proposal describing a breif synopsis of the cell process you'll be acting out.
Remember to make this both a learning moment, but fun! Have fun with the puppets. Give them characteristics of people but still doing their assigned cellular roles.
Next class period will be all dedicated to working on the projects. You'll need to have your script finished by the end of the period with puppet styles fleshed out. You can pick up materials AT THE END OF THE DAY for your puppets. There will not be class time to work on them.

January 4th, 5th Tuesday/Wednesday
Welcome back! I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday break and are excited to be back to school. I know I am.
Today we were introduced to our big Cell Puppet Show/Soap Opera project. In this project you, in a group, will perform some action that goes on inside of a cell, acting out the roles of the organelles as puppets or characters. This is a major project that will take us through the end of the semester. Definitely one you can't miss. Here is the handout for the puppet show.
After that, we talked about and started learning about organelles in a cells.
Here are the notes for that: --------> CELL ORGANELLE NOTES
And, here's the notesheet to use that goes along with it: --------> Cell Note sheet
Make sure you have this for class as this will provide the background information you need to write a successful script for the puppet show.
Tomorrow we're going into the lab to look at onion and tomato cells under the microscope and get more familiar with the cell organelles.

Wednesday/Thursday, December 15/16th
Today we did a lab over proper microscope use to get us into our cells unit.
We're going to be using the microscope a lot because, well, cells are small and can't be seen without one.
After this, we're off for two weeks and then it's back to awesome science!
