The last week has been a real doozie for us here in biology land. We finally finished up our chapter on chemistry ending the section with a lab that explores the qualities of amylase - an enzyme found in your spit. Most of the students really enjoyed it although we did have a few who were hesitant because of the "eww" factor that goes with saliva.
As for the technology issues that I'd been having - they seemed to be fixed. For now. PowerSchool has been updated and grades should be pretty accurate. I'll be entering scores from Thursday's notebook check over the weekend so there may be some minor changes. I check the notebooks to make sure that students are keeping up with taking notes, completing our daily bellringers and holding onto assignments that will serve as study guides not only for our chapter tests but for the end-of course(EOC) exam that they will take at the end of the semester.
Remember - you are welcome to contact me anytime at coopere@parkhill.k12.mo.us I hope everyone has been having a great week and that your weekend will be awesome!
See you in Biology!
