Techno-Crash in Class!

I had planned on Monday to show a video in the sanctuary on the big screen...but that did not happen. (The internet at the church is unreliable :( sorry.  --But we got in a good review.

I would, however,  like you to watch it on your own and take notes as I instructed in class on the back of the handout which had the 4 organisms.  On the back of the handout we wrote down questions to ask, such as, how does it:
  • move, 
  • feed, 
  • reproduce,
  • protect itself, 
  • and anything else?

Getting to the video is more tricky than usual, so follow these directions:
Go to ebiomedia.com 
In the top left corner choose "click here to sign in"
login as  Veronique
password is jimbridger
On the upper right corner, choose "my account"
then choose "My Videos"
then beneath  Paramecium, Hydra, Planaria, Daphnia choose "+show video links"
lastly, next to 1. Watch full program, choose "watch video"
This is a 30 minute video.
It is likely that only one computer can log into my account at a time, so if it doesn't work when you try, possibly someone else is watching, so try back later.  If you have problems, call me at 892-8540. 25 points for taking notes on the back of the handout.  If you lost your handout, you may find it on this site here:  http://www.ebiomedia.com/media/POSTERS/POSTER-CLASSICS.pdf

Class on Thursday will be about the Cell Membrane and the Big O in Biology.  To prepare, please cover 3-4 uncooked  eggs in white vinegar (or cider vinegar, not expensive balsamic!)  This is to remove the shell layer.  Observe; do not bring to class.  This experiment you will do at home over the next week. This is only the  beginning--More instructions to follow on Thursday.

Read Chapter 2, section 1 - Exchange with the Environment  Answer questions. 25 pts.

Checklist:
1. watch movie + take notes
2. submerge 3-4 eggs in vinegar
3. read ch.2, sec. 1 + answer review questions.
4. review vocabulary through quizlet. (see last week's homework)
