Fast Plants and Flying Marshmallow picts

Our Wisconsin fast plants are up in Genetics.  We are raising the F2 generation of a cross that yields a 9:3:3:1 ration (purple stem and green/yellow leaves).  We have our inquiry experiments ready to cross when our current plants flower.

We have club schedule tomorrow and the PSAT on Wednesday.  First block genetics will meet again on Thursday.

Our physics unit is underway and we are working on our mousetrap catapults for accuracy.  These catapults must have a trigger ... delivering a projectile (marshmallow) twelve feet to a bucket.  Below are some pictures from today's construction.

In computer programming we added music to our farm scenes.  We will start checking our graphics problems on Wednesday.

Took a walk to Long Creek after school ... lots of bumblebees on wingstem ... they were barely moving.
