Systems, Pretest and Guide

We will continue working on systems, we will take the human body pretest and work on the human body guide. The guide will be your source on what each system does and some of their specific organs. As we work through the unit and look at different systems, the guide will be an easy and quick way for you to see what these different systems do.

Systems, what are they?

We have wrapped up our cells unit and moving into systems. We will specifically look at how the body is a group of interacting systems that maintain a balance and keep us functioning. We will work on identifying what a system is and how they function. We will look at all body systems during the unit and then focus specifically on the nervous system.

Finish Cell Investigation

We will be wrapping up your cell investigation today. The first 20-25 minutes will be finalizing your sources. From there we will have a short discussion on what you are finding and you will have an opportunity to talk to your classmates and see some of the specific things they discovered. Your final claim and reflection needs to be completed before Friday.

Continue Investigation

Good to see you back, it was a rough few days in LA. The sun was shining, hot, I could barely stand the heat that I had to wear shorts everyday. We will continue with your investigation, the first part of class we will spend sometime catching me up to speed on where you are.

Bell Ringer - Be prepared to share one thing that you have found out about how cells are built.

Cells and More Cells

We will start our investigation on cells today. You will be looking at various cells and comparing them. Are all cells the same? Before the investigation we will review your study guide and make sure that everything is accurate. Remember you have a quiz on Wednesday.

Bell Ringer - What is an organelle. Be ready to share out the answer.

Study Guide & Review for Cell/Organelle Quiz

We will go over the organelle worksheet from last class, this will help you on the study guide and the quiz. Following the worksheet we will complete a study guide and a quizizz to help you review for your upcoming quiz on next Wednesday.

Cells and Organelles

We will focus on the lab from earlier this week and compare bot the cheek (animal) cell and plant cells we looked at. We will also spend some time looking at the 5 main organelles you will be quizzed on next week.
