Hi everyone ! I apologize for not posting anything in awhile.

Everyone did a great job first term.  Your effort and approach to the material was outstanding.  Please continue to show this great work ethic as we start Term 2.  Remember, we are starting with a clean slate so it is never too late to take initiative ! Also remember good behavior and respect always in order for class and life to run smoothly.

With that said here is what went on today

Forensics

Today we continues our unit on DNA and forensics.  We finished the notes about DNA basics and talked about famous cases using DNA to convict and exonerate people. We will keep going with this unit tomorrow

Homework

Finish the video questions on fingerprinting from last week (we watched the last segment today)
You are to hand this in tomorrow

Integrated Science

Today we did the ooblek lab ! Everyone showed good lab practices during this activity.  We made observations about this cornstarch & water substance and did mini experiments to determine whether or not it is more like a solid or a liquid.  Tomorrow we will come to a conclusion as a class about this!

Homework

Finish the questions in the ooblek lab packet.  You will hand the packet as well as a conclusion write-up we do in class tomorrow in tomorrow for a lab grade


Freshmen Academy - Reminder ! Homework Club meets on Tuesday afternoons in Room 218.  Stop by homework club for help with class content, organization, and homework.  Soon there will be late buses !
