Day One Hundred Seven Overview

Day One Hundred Seven Overview

- we began class by working on an Ecology review packet to refresh the student's memories on a topic from last year
     - most students were able to remember the difference between producer and consumer, what a food web is, how to interpret a food web, and what an energy pyramid looks like
- after having the students work on the packet for 10 - 15 minutes I went over the answers to a few of the problems on the Smartboard

Ecology Review Packet

- after going over some ecology, I gave the students a quick lesson on genetics
     - we reviewed the terms heterozygous and homozygous
     - we also reviewed the terms genotype and phenotype
     - lastly, we worked through some Punnet Square examples on a genetics worksheet

Genetics Worksheet

- to finish class I asked the students what they remembered about the parts of a cell
     - most of the students remembered more than they thought they would
     - we worked through the parts of the cell as a class
