Drawing Plankton

Students started the day with a brief review of seaweed and algae types. Then they learned how some abiotic factors cause different biomes and zonation in the ocean. Today we mostly focused on tidal zonation on shorelines, but students will discuss other biomes and the zonation within them next week.

We finished the day playing catch up. Students were asked to draw plankton following a schematic and then answer some basic questions. Afterward students worked on a variety of assignments that were missing or incomplete.

Check out this collection of plankton drawn by first and fourth period students.

Computer Lab Etiquette

You are in the computer lab to do work for this class. If you are not doing work, then we will have problems.

Do not pack up early. Work until the bell or until MsJ says.

SAVE OFTEN. And if you save to a key, also save it to your number. If you lose it, you will have to do it again.

If MsJ asks for your attention, stop what you are doing and listen to what she has to say.

You may watch videos about your organism through reliable websites.

You may listen to music through the computer if you have your own headphones. Rule1 MsJ cannot hear it. You get one warning. Rule2 Turn it on and listen – no million clicks and constant changing. Take both ear phones out when MsJ is talking.
