Even though a few students were out for a late announced field trip, we did the first half of the cellular respiration lab (one of thirteen required labs). Students used germinated pea seeds to measure aerobic respiration by measuring oxygen consumption. We used respirometers under water with the carbon dioxide removed into a solid with the help of potassium hydroxide. The results were good and we will analyze the data on Monday since another field trip is scheduled for Thursday ... Really! We only have class when we can't find anything else to do, or so it seems.
Students in my 5th period computer class showed me their solutions for Karel can Add and Mission Impossible. Microsoft qBASIC on tap for the end of the week.
I saw on Monarch today for a total this season of 21. Sue Neal and I mowed the yard ... rain forecasted for tonight.
Both chrysalises in the garden still there ...
