Today we dissected the pigs! Great work everyone. You should have seen the liver, pancreas (tricky to see this one), gallbladder, spleen, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum. Make sure you can describe all the functions of these (not the spleen). Here is a good online human body visualizer if you want to practice observing a human.
Digestion test on THURSDAY!!!
Today we prepared the piggies getting ready for dissection. Come prepared to dissect tomorrow. Read through the lab hand out. Next we worked on our Test Review getting ready for the DIGESTIVE system test on THURSDAY.
Today we did the last topic of the Chemistry Unit by looking at THIS power point. Next we worked on our Chemistry Practice test getting rid for the test on Friday. The practice test is due on Wednesday/Thursday depending on when your double block falls. Here is my friend Trevor helping out with classifying reactions:
Today we practiced balancing and classifying chemical reactions. Worksheet found HERE.
Next we did a type: 6 types of reactions found on page 180-182. Answer the questions #3, 4, and 5 on page 182.
Mini quiz tomorrow only on balancing.
Today we worked on our board games first block. Last day to turn them in is on Nov. 25. Next we got an outline for the digestive system test. Practice test is found HERE. Test is on Thurs. Nov. 25
