Wednesday

We watched some interesting video clips today. We watched a protist eat algae, we watched a flagella dance and a stentor using its cilia to pull in his food. We also watched a fun rap on Bacteria. Then we watched a news clip on bacteria on cell phones. It was enlightening, I immediately cleaned my cell phone. Some of the students got to see kefir bacteria. Then we went to the power point presentation about the five kingdoms, the characteristics of each, and pictures. We saw a mushroom about four feet tall and discussed the good and bad of both fungus and bacteria.

Report cards were handed out today. The students were told that if they want to bring up their grades they must turn in their work. A few students haven't learned that concept yet. It would be a good idea for parents to check their student's grades online to see what is going on.
