Monday (6/30) - Memorial Day, school is not in session. It appears that I inadvertently put the wrong date on the extra credit project. Please hand them in on Wednesday (6/1). After hearing from a few frustrated students, it appears that the generator only allows you to put in one or two sentences. Please just enter a short one sentence statement of what the important event for the date you selected might have been. Type, in a bullet-point style any additional information that you would like to include about that date on the time-line and staple it to the time-line itself. Please do not stress yourself over this assign. It was meant to be a way to connect the science you have been learning with the history of the city you live in, and a foresight into the possible future trend of Chicago's changing population.
Tuesday (5/31) - All scientists were shown the differences between dicot and monocot plants. We looked at their seeds, leaves and roots. All students were instructed to find a specimen of a dicot and monocot leaf and seed. Due Wednesday (6/1).
Wednesday (6/1) - All leaf and seed samples have been collected. There is no homework tonight.

Homework for the week of 5/15-20
Monday (5/16) - Students in period 1 have been shown how to outline the supplemental reading on "The Bare Necessities of Life" in class today as a study strategy to extract notes and determine important information from information the may have lesser value. For homework period 1 will complete the remainder of the outline. This assignment is due Tuesday (5/18). All other periods (2, 5, 7, 8, and 9) have already outlined and turned in their assignments last week. All periods have taken observations on their planters, as well as, their germination cups and the changes that are taking place in them. We are preparing our notes for the rumblings of a test that is in the air. There is no homework this evening for periods 2, 5, 7, 8, and 9.
Tuesday (5/18) - Students have revisited their germination cups to look for signs of change. We have completed our discussion and notes regarding the science of taxonomy, the necessities that underlie the processes that fuel life. There is no homework.
Wednesday (5/19) - Everyone has received their study guide for the upcoming test next Wednesday, 5/25. We spent the day, going over expectations for the boat trip coming up on the 27th and the study guide. Some classes reviewed and made note-cards. In addition, they were introduced to another strategy for creating easy note-cards for study. Homework for tonight: create note-cards for 2-3 expectations on the study-guide. Place your note-cards around various places and things that you look at frequently. As you go by them, see if you can recite the details without peeking. Look for examples around your home and all the organisms the live there. Find a connection between the science concept and your real world.
Thursday (5/20) - We are wrapping up our observations of the Black-worms with discussions about the things that were observed over the past three weeks and how they relate to the organisms life processes on micro level (cellular) and macro level (the organism and its systems and environment). Homework: students should continue to make their note cards and study 2 to 3 more expectations from the study guide.

Homework for week 5/9 - 13
Monday (5/9) - We are back for more observations after the weekend. For some, organisms have disappeared and some organisms have grown. While we move forward, we have sketched some changes and charted others as we contemplate the causes behind the increase or decrease in the living organisms we are examining and the processes all seem to share in their interconnecting circles of life. There is no homework.
Tuesday (5/10) - Today we had a discussion and note-taking session about the things that we have been seeing with our organisms. Students will be reading the supplement "What Makes a Plant" and answering its corresponding comprehension questions. This assignment is due Wed., 5/11.
Wednesday - Friday (5/11-13) Due to the blog site being unavailable for maintenance, there was no homework posted on the blog on Wednesday (5/11). Students in periods 2, 5, 7, 8, and 9 were shown how to outline the supplemental chapter of reading titled "The Bare Necessities of Life." They were then assigned the rest of the chapter to outline for homework, which was due Thursday (5/12). On Thursday and Friday, we were so busy putting together our planters and beginning on our germination cups, I forgot to update the blog. My apologies, but there was no homework assigned on Thursday or Friday, (5/12-13).
