We tried to wrap up some loose ends today since we will not meet until Thursday in Genetics. Finished the write up of our Osmosis Lab, finished discussion questions for Chapter 5 and assigned discussion questions for Chapter 6 (X and Y chromosomes, SRY gene, X-linked conditions and more). We finished the block with our review board game ... winners received a morning quiz score. Several students did well answering the questions which acts as a review of vocabulary and concepts.
In Selected Topics we had several students finishing their Earth Science tests. The rest of the class worked on their solar system model lab. We also went over Hertzsprung - Russell diagrams for classifying stars (see below) and our constellation of the day was Orion (for me, THE constellation ... it has it all!)
In computer science, we continued our work on single dimension arrays.
Rained .5 inches today ... good for the annual rye, clover, buckwheat and hairy vetch I planted this weekend.
The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.
