Mrs. Hickey: Some students in A and B block may have a worksheet to finish. ALL CLASSES: Students got back their planaria labs (on Monday) to be signed. There is an open lab report quiz tomorrow. Students have been told that if their lab report is not signed, or they come to class without the lab report, they WILL NOT be allowed to use it during the quiz. I have been reminding them to write it in their agenda book since MONDAY, but some students still did not have it signed today. Also, I told students that they could take notes from their book about planaria ( most information is on one page- 38) and put the notes on their planaria lab report.They are not allowed to use any other pieces of paper during the quiz, and will not be allowed to use their book during the quiz. Also, I answered any questions students had about the lab report today in class.Hopefully, students will take advantage of this opportunity. Because this is an open lab report quiz, there will not be any extra credit offered after the quiz.There will be no homework assigned tomorrow.
