Today we had a discussion about the conference we will be attending next week: Responsible Recreation. The link is found HERE. Next we continued our discussion on rivers. We watched the crash course below and wrote up 2 things we knew, 2 thinks we learned and 1 question:
1) Today we wrote out Bacteria QUESSSST. Nice work everyone, slayed that!
2) Next we did some reading about protists: page 68-71 in our text books.
3) Worked on the Distribution and Abundance of Bacteria Lab. We took our second data collection and then worked on writing up the lab on the computers. Make sure you share this lab with me by Tuesday, May 9
Today we did a walk about along the Illecillewaet River to Bridge Creek to look at stream flow, erosion effects, natural ecosystem management and Kokanee spawning grounds. If you missed part of the walk, your assignment is to:
1) Prepare a power point about a specific river anywhere on earth. You need pictures from google earth and some data about the river and it's connection to the people of the area. Explain why you picked this river, what did you find interesting about it?
OR:
2) Prepare an information brochure about Kokanee Salmon
Ms. Wood is home sick today so no need to observe the BACTERIA from the lab last week. We will make our second observations on Thursday after the Bacteria Quest. Reminder that on Thursday there is a bacteria unit quest. Use your notes, review and textbook concept check questions to help you review. There is a a lot of new vocabulary here. Here is what you should work on:
1) Bacteria Quest Review found HERE. I will collect this on Thursday. This can be handwritten on done on computer and shared with me.
2) Watch the videos below to help you review:
Ms. Wood is home sick today, but here is the work to get ready for the river study. No need to bring bikes tomorrow, we can't go as far as I thought we could!
1) Read the River Systems document found HERE. Write a summary of the main points of the article (include new vocabulary words you learned). Share your document with me on word.
2) Use good old google to answer the following River Study questions found HERE. You can answer directly on the document after downloading and saving it with your name in the title.
3) Watch the Crash Course in Geography below:
Today we finished off notes on bacteria. Next we made some streak plates and then worked on our Abundance and Diversity of bacteria lab. This lab is HERE.
