Planning time 4/25

This week, we will be planning, in detail for the Symposium on June 4th. We will also be studying the history of life on Earth using a timeline. Take a look at our new plant growth chamber in back of the room. Don't forget to bring in egg crates or those little plant pots that a "pony pack of plants" come in!

Wednesday, 4/14

I haven' t been very good about keeping up the blog....but for a GOOD reason....WILL'S BACK! We are so happy, too! We are now doing our proposals for our 2nd Annual Astrobiology Symposium. We have 2 authors of our textbook will be sharing our final projects (a sort of "final exam" for Astro) along with many principals (BJHS, BHS, and Coffin), and other dignitaries. The date will be Friday, June 4th during 1st and part of 2nd period in the BJHS gym.

We can't WAIT!

WELCOME BACK, WILL! :)

Friday, 4/2

Today we did activity 1 on p 215. We did lots of measurements (hand span, wrist to elbow, tip of middle finger to tip of middle finger of the other hand, height) and reaction time using a meter stick. We are trying to see if there's a correlation between some of these measurements and our reaction time.

Monday, we will be "treating" some petri dishes with bacteria from our hands and will then swab them with some antibacterial products to see which products are most effective.
