Daily Recap: Monday, 3/23

Welcome back! I hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable spring break...

Investigating Technologies:
Today was the first day in our last Suite rotation of the school year. We should have interval one finished by the middle part of next week.

Anatomy and Physiology:
Today was the first day for the rat lab. We spent most of the periods going over introductory information. There was some time at the end of class to begin the "Introduction" unit. Don't forget that everything you need to complete the rat activities (with the exception of the dissection manuals) is available on the course website. This includes answer keys. Also, don't forget to check out the introductory podcast for this unit. We will be working on the rats for the next several weeks.

Biology:
We began our unit covering taxonomy and classification by discussing why classification is important in biology. We also gave some examples of things that are classified by people on a daily basis. There was time at the end of the period to begin working on tomorrow's assignment, which is to read textbook section 17.1. The reading strategy is students' choice.
