NOTE TO STUDENTS:  IN SUMMER BIOLOGY: THE FOLLOWING ASSIGNMENTS ARE FOR YOU TO DO IN THE CLASSROOM. THERE ARE VARIOUS ACTIVITIES THAT I WILL HAVE YOU DO OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM TO PREPARE FOR UPCOMING STUDIES AND THE SECOND SEMESTER. YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN ALL ACTIVITIES WITH THE GROUP. MY OBJECTIVE IS TO BALANCE THIS CLASS WITH HANDS-ON ACTIVITIES THAT WILL HELP YOU LEARN THE CONCEPTS. YOU WILL GAIN A BETTER UNDERSTANDING BY FOLLOWING ALL ACTIVITIES ASSIGNED.

Week 1 (June 4th-June 8th)- We will be concentrating on labs and book work mostly. There is no field trip scheduled for this week.

Week 2 (June 11th-June15th)- Textbook and labs, plus, we will have a field trip on Friday, June 15th to the Federal Fish Hatchery in Yankton, SD. Plant labs are planned for this week and monitoring the on-going labs is a must.

There are several things that I would like you to do outside of the classroom this week:
1. Start your insect collection-this will be necessary for our insect unit coming up. I have plastic jars for collecting the insects.
I will issue a jar to you. You are not graded on the size of the insect you collect, just you presentation of insect display.
2. Finish the leaf collection and tag-board display.
3. Mold lab should be finished by Thursday, June 14th.
4. Bean seed lab should be started this week.

Week 3 (June 18th-June22nd)- After this week we will be at the midpoint and should have completed the first semester of this course. Some labs may carry-over into week 4. I will add and update this webpage as we go.
