Wednesday

Hi, it is back to school night! Today we took a quiz - the students can take it home and fix it, but it is due back tomorrow morning at the beginning of class. They may use their notes and books to work on the answers. The quiz was from the notes they took the past five days.

We went out and checked our boiled plants, every leaf that had hot water poured on it was dead. It was kind of interesting. We hypothesized that the stomata could not open and close after the boiling water was poured on the plants. Perhaps that is why the leaves died. After the leaves die photosynthesis could not take place and the plant would die. We will keep checking on the plants to see how things went.
