AP: Week of 10/1 - 10/5

This week in AP, we continue to study the amazing, tiny cell!

Objective 10/1: Scientists will identify the functions and structures of cellular organelles in order to began to visualize the the smallest unit of life.

HW 10/1: work on ch. 6 reading guide, complete surface area lab (due tmrw), and work on cell organelle chart (due Weds 10/3)

Objective 10/2: Scientists will identify the functions and structures of cellular organelles in order to began to visualize the the smallest unit of life. (see Ch. 6 Additional Notes)

HW 10/2: work on ch. 6 reading guide and work on cell organelle chart and organelle matching (due Weds 10/3)

bio: Week of 10/1 - 10/5

This week in biology, we'll be diving further into the world of ecology. We will start the week by finishing our viewing of Planet Earth: The Future: Saving Species. The video will link to the introduction of our quarter project: Environmental Issues Investigation.

Objective 10/1: Scientists will finish viewing Planet Earth: Saving Species in order to begin thought and discussion on environmental, ecological issues. (see Environmental Issues Project)

HW 10/1: read Ch. 3-1 and answer questions 1, 2, and 4 (due Tues 10/2)

Objective 10/2: Scientists will create biome posters in order to differentiate between abiotic and biotic factors and discover various biomes of the world. (see Intro to Ecology Notes and Biomes Poster)

HW 10/2: read Ch. 3-2 (pg. 67-73) (due Weds 10/3)

Objective 10/3: Scientists will learn about producers and consumers in order to explain the importance of each to an ecosystem. (see Ecosystem Relationships Notes and Basic Food Chain Summarizer)

HW 10/3: answer questions 1, 4 (pg. 73) (due Thurs 10/4)

Objective 10/4: Scientists will view biome posters created by their classmates in order to understand how abiotic factors affect biotic factors. (see Biome Gallery Walk)

HW 10/4: study for quiz (due Fri 10/5)
