Daily Recap: Monday, 3/30

Anatomy and Physiology:
We're now a full week into the rat dissection, and most groups have at least taken the measurements of their rats, with many of them in the process of skinning. Students will get a new Physio-Phocus tomorrow in class that will outline the schedule for the rest of the week.

Biology:
1. Debriefed the classification lab from last week.
2. Discussed field guides as a type of tool that biologists can use to access information about different types of organisms. Several examples of field guides are available in the classroom for students to look at.
3. Each student needs to take the animal that they classified last week and make a field guide page for it. The page should include the common and scientific names of the animal, the K,P,C,O,F,G,S classification, and a picture. Pages should also include information such as habitat, range, size, behaviors, or diet.
4. Copies of a snake field guide were made available. There is a 30-question worksheet that needs to be completed and graded.
