Crunch time tomorrow ...

In our Genetics class, we took our morning quiz on the immune system, pollinated our fast plants, checked our brine shrimp experiment and set up my beekeeping presentation.  Tomorrow about the same to wrap up the week and our discussion questions on the Cancer chapter.

I did a beekeeping demonstration in Selected Topics ... anatomy of a hive and a quick year in beekeeping in in preparation for our plant and animal unit.  Tomorrow,  we crush our structures made of popsicle sticks ... 34 grams (about 24 sticks) with at least a 2" clear center and 7.5 - 8.5" tall.  The record is over 250 lbs.  No nails only clue ... we discussed load bearing members and torsion, gravity, and more.  Results tomorrow.

Students today wrapped up the Josh is cheating in the lottery program and we are now working on our lottery analysis of the picks over the last year ... frequency of number and numeric patterns.  We plan to finish up qBASIC next week and move on to Microsoft Visual BASIC.

I hosted after school detention today before heading home.
