Q1 HW
*Class policies signed, "about me" shield due wed....don't forget to use color. * class policy signed, complete your "get to know you" shield *class policy signed, making sure you completed the Obervation/inference activity and at the bottom of that paper is an assignment to do on separate paper about making an observation around your house and then inferring. * Textbook: read chapter 1 and do the questions on pg. 24 on separate paper and in complete sentences, get a quad ruled composition book as a lab book *think about the lab design. You must have it ready in your lab book by Friday. Hypothesis, materials, procedure and a data table. * No HW...rest and get caught up. Need a lab book asap. I may have a few to sell from the sci. dept. for $ 1.15 * Lab book to be checked for data chart, graph, results and conclusion. *Address the 6 steps of designing an experiment in your lab book. You need to address how that condition was satisfied with your idea/lab and then address what you will do next for the improved lab. Example: Control- we used water as the control to compare how the marigold material affected the safflower seed growth. New design- water will still be the control - have lab book ready to set up your "redo" allelopathy seed lab *No specific HW today, be sure your lab book is up to date,it will be collected after the seed lab is complete Due tomorrow: Experimental design worksheet Due Thursday: Chemistry chapter study sheets Friday: QUIZ ( safety, observation/inference, scientific method) * see above *Chemistry worksheets due Friday: QUIZ ( safety, observation/inference, scientific method) * Study for your quiz...see above * lab book due with all of what we have done so far. See "handouts" and the one labeled lab book check list 9-24 *Pg. 54 #1-6 *none, finish the cracker/pasta tasting activity as explained on the ppt *none: finish the Venn diagram comparing saturated and unsaturated lipids *pg. 59 #1-6 *none.....pd 6....turn in pg. 59 on monday *complete the activity (pd5) *pd 6 ( complete all but one section to do tomorrow) Pre-lab questions and charts on handout from class...all entered in your lab book. You can cut and paste the charts only. Pre-lab: write a purpose and the procdures in your lab book Report to room 224 thurs/fri . *due Tuesday: lab book with the write-up for the nutrient testing lab, rubric given in class...work on it over the weekend and come with questions monday. *Tues: lab quiz: 4 or 5 questions based only on the lab * If you didn't finish the 10 labels...do it tonight * lab book due tomorrow: Nutrient testing lab and 3-5 question lab quiz *Nutrient labels activity due...yes, all of it! *none *pre-lab worksheet to be entered in your lab book; set-up the lab for monday..directions on lab procedure * Work on the lab write-up; see your procedure paper that is also found in the "handouts" section. data, graphs, results and conclusion for ALL 3 conditions. Due wed.. * Lab book due tomorrow with enzyme lab...see above * Chapter 49 worksheet due Monday...start now Q1 assessment 10-28 *Chapter 49 worksheet *start reviewing for the Q1 assessment *Your group's section of the review to share with class * review for Q1 assessment on 10-28 * study for assessment thurs. *pg. 84-85 summarize the story due friday * see above; word search for extra points |
