Today we finished off Subatomic Particles.  We took a few notes on how to determine # of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom.   We did some practice questions on this.   These types of questions will be on the QQQuiz on Friday. 

Next we started the Biology Unit by learning the parts of the microscope and how to use it.   We looked a prepared slide of a Hydra and made a wet mount of some human hairs.   We will finish the microscope drawing next class.
