Thursday

6th grade: We reviewed mitosis and meiosis today and then watched videos on heredity and punnett squares. Students turned in the heredity chart they did with their families. We also popped two of our eggs that we have been experimenting with. That was fun. Then we switched the corn syrup egg into the salt water and the salt water egg we put in the corn syrup. We will see what happens on Monday. We had a TALL assembly today for attendance. This time the 8th graders won the grade prize.

7th grade: We finished our unit on Heredity today. We discussed purebred animals and hybrid animals. We also discussed different genetic diseases and how they are inherited. We will be starting on a new unit on Monday.
