Wednesday	EXAM MOVED TO THURSDAY - Exam is moved to Thursday because I am at home with the flu.  The plan is to be back tomorrow and we will write it then.  I moved the exam so that if you have any questions during the exam I can help you work through those questions and that way you will have extra time available at lunch to finish.  Sorry to have to move it. Today: 1) Finish up your assigned evolution question and enter it on the google presentation. 2) Finish watching the videos about the introduction to genetics.  As you watch the video you should be filling in the handout that goes along with the powerpoint. - The vocab is just to be done as the words come up in the videos.  Please don't worrry about trying to research the words first, just add the explanations as you go through the video. - The videos also have sound so be sure that you play it with the sound so you can hear the explanations. - Today you will finish up the videos on introduction to genetics and you will try a few monohybrid cross problems. - If you finish please work on your evolution worksheets (i.e. the evidence for evolution worksheets that come after the questions.) - If you have any questions you can post them to this wiki discussion thread and I will try to answer them as we go through class.	- Please watch the four video parts and start on the genetics questions. Part 1: Intro to genetics Part 2: Part 3 - Key terms Part 4 - Monohybrid Crosses Start on the genetics questions:
