WEDNESDAY'S SUB PLAN AP BIO WILL FOCUS ON PLANTS, AP ENVIRONMENTAL WILL FOCUS ON PEST MANAGEMENT


fourth block:  thank you so much for the card- Mrs. Faulkner took a pix and sent it to me- you made me giggle!!! 

Homework For tonight

  • finish any videos you couldn't finish in class or re-watch them if you think you need more notes
  • Those taking the AP exam:subject yourself to as much Bozeman as you can handle- do the ones in the AP Biology lab section or the supplemental resources section as I probably won't have you watching those in class.                 


Sub Plan for Wednesday:

AP BIOLOGY 2nd block:   ( 4th block will have to watch the videos for homework wed. night)

AS USUAL, PAUSE AS NEEDED TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING GOOD NOTES.
plant structure:
Terms to focus on, write these down BEFORE watching and be able to explain what they make and do:  sclerenchyma, parenchyma, collenchyma, double fertilization, endosperm, embryo, primary growth and secondary growth
14 min.

non-vascular plant reproduction:
Terms to focus on, write these down and be able to explain what they are or do: Bryophytes, sporophytes, gametophytes,  "alternation of generations"
10 min.  "HANK"

Now for a video intermission: Take about 30 min for this.
draw out the life cycle of a non-vascular plant! use a blank piece of copy paper- btw's we're running out, so please bring some in if you haven't already:)

color code your parts sporophytes one color, female gametophytes and male gametophytes should be different colors.

use this image as a guide!

THIS IMAGE IS JUST TO HELP YOU SEE WHAT THE REAL-LIFE VERSION LOOKS LIKE.
 

Wrap up with class with this video- remember: if you run out of time in class you will NEED to finish it for homework:
vascular plants: focus on how the vascular plants reproduce, pay attention to the "evolutionary" aspects he talks about, pause at the flower (at around 7:30) and draw and label the parts!

SUB PLAN FOR AP ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
First off, I saw this write up and found it enlightening and disturbing, so I thought I would share it with you. You can check it out at your leisure from home. http://blog.ted.com/2014/01/31/will-potter-on-of-treating-environmentalists-like-terrorists/
