Amphibian Lab tomorrow ...

AP Biology is wrapping up our organ system study tomorrow with a study of the nervous system.  We have a review session on Saturday but, most students are not attending.  Not finishing is always a problem at our school.  We still have 10 days to go ... most will want review sessions the weekend before the test, by that time it will be too late for me to bail them out.  On the bright side, a few of the students seem to be loading in the information and should make at least a three.

AP students are will had in a sample test tomorrow in addition to their organ system review questions.

Selected Topics read in class today ... computer programming of Angry Bird and the physics simulated, honey be parasites and an article on surgery on a fetus.  Students wrote short summaries in the comp books.  We watched a video about amphibians and reptiles with a discussion afterwards in preparation for the beginning of our amphibian dissection tomorrow.

We had a faculty meeting after school.  Mike, Mark and Robert started practice on the field until they moved inside to hit because of rain.  We worked at four stations ... tee work, bounce ball drill, disc drill, and two machines ... fastball and curve.  Afterward I shoveled out some trenches to take the water off the field.

Tomorrow is our game at home against #2 Louisville Ballard ... a reprise last year's state championship game.  That are really good and we will have to play big to win.

Rained about two inches last night and again rained today.  Plants greened up and everything is growing again.  Hope our corn is up in the bottom.  Bees are working hard!
