Physical Science
Today was dedicated to the Paper Towel lab. Only one group out of 2 classes has it done, so more time will be given Monday. Expect a quiz on the Sci Meth Tuesday or Wed.
Anatomy
We corrected the lecture review and osteoporosis worksheets
We briefly discussed/took notes on the 4 types of bones.
You worked in pairs on filling in a worksheet about Joints.
We reviewed that sheet.
We looked at the knee joint specifically and analyzed its parts (learn it!)
We looked at pictures of an arthroscopically repaired meniscus.
We viewed the video of the broken leg distance runner on youtube

Anatomy
Today you guys reviewed the skeleton picture as well as the skull bone quiz.
After reviewing the compact bone structure (and expanding on it a little), we read an article on hormone replacement therapy. We also learned the roles of osteoblasts and osteoclasts.
To finish class we had 2 worksheets to fill in.
Test is probably next Tuesday - it will be of large point value so please get crackin.
Physical Science
C block we had a rousing conversation about Cleveland Public Schools then got into the topic at hand - scientific method.
Both classes did the M & M lab, but the A block class was given the paper towel lab to review. Both classes will do that in class on Friday.
Peace to all.

Greetings from the insane asylum I call room 331. I highly doubt anyone reads this blog, so I have no problem going off the deep end a little.
Physical Science
Today we introduced the idea of reading an article for the purposes of criticizing its science. I don't suppose that article would make for some great dinner conversation, eh?
After that you were given a sheet in which you were asked to identify 5 different possible solutions for 3 different problems. We will continue with the scientific method more on Thursday.
Anatomy
Today we began studying the microscopic anatomy of bone. There were notes on this that you will want to copy if you were absent (Ellie).
Worksheet for reviewing the notes we took. We will review this Thursday.
You also had a practice skull/vertebrae quiz to work on for Thurs.

Physical Science
C - lots of absences - stop missing school!!!!
A - all here, I believe
We wrapped up graphing by getting credit for creating an Excel line graph (5 pts) and an Excel pie graph (5 pts). After that, everyone had to make their own pie graph based on data I provided (6 pts). That is homework for those who didn't finish it.
We begin critical thinking and scientific method next - be ready.
Anatomy
absent - Kovacik
Quiz - bones of the cranium
Finished the bones of the body by spending extensive time on the vertebrae then a lesser amount of time on the ribs, sternum, sacrum, hyoid, etc...
You should be able to label the 206 bones of the body.
32 per arm
31 per leg (don't forget the patella!)
22 cranium
24 vertebrae
24 ribs
6 ear
other odds and ends

Physical Science
absent - C Orahoske, Peplin, A - ???
We introduced bell work today - bring it each day.
You were given two line graphs, one for practice and the second one for score. Block C collected data outside to make their graph. Block A worked on the computers to make graphs on Excel.
No homework. More on Pie Graphs and intro to scientific method on Tuesday.
Anatomy
absent - Lovey
We reviewed the bones of the vault.
We finished the bones of the face.
We listed the 104 bones of the upper and lower appendicular skeletons.
Practice quiz on the skull.
