On Mondays, all eight periods meet for at least 45 minutes each.
In AP Biology today, we continued to review biochemistry. We drew some of the most important biological molecules on white boards and learned how to connect them to make larger molecules. Tomorrow, we are doing a lab using microscopes to calculate the number of stomata in the leaves of three types of milkweed leaves. Also, tomorrow we are going over the 13 required investigations (labs) we will do this year and introduce some of the equipment we will be using.
In Selected Topics, we continued working on molecules of biological importance which will eventually lead to a study of food labels.
The Computer Programming classes are wrapping up their fifth Karel program ... Grand Prix of Karel. We should be able to finish this rather long program by the end of the week and start on programs using if-then, if-then-else and while-do statements.
I stayed after school to set up my gradebook.
At home this evening, I repotted some milkweed plants for our lab tomorrow. This lab will be part of our Patriot Pollinator Project - 2014.
