1. Please grab a new focus lesson from the front of the room.
Place your SCIENCE FAIR boards in the lab area. MAKE SURE YOUR NAME IS EASILY READ.

2. Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful break.
You have 10 minutes to define the words on this new focus lesson using either your notes or a textbook.
At the end of this ten minutes focus lessons must be turned in at the front, and textbooks must be put away.

3. Time’s up! Mitosis Implantation DNA Replication Fertilization Meiosis
Let’s review this vocabulary together to make sure we’re all on the same page.
REMEMBER: Biology is kind of like taking a foreign language. You HAVE to practice this vocabulary to become successful in this course.

5. Science fair! What should I have to get an “a”?
I received s and texts from many of your classmates to assist them over the break. I also stayed after school, making my computers and printer available yesterday. It is due today.
What do you need to turn in, today?
Your board
If you followed the checklist, you’re on your way to a stellar grade!
Purpose
Hypothesis
Abstract
Title
Experimental Steps
Data
Analysis
Conclusion

6. Abstract: What is it? How do we do it?
An abstract is a summary of your entire project in essay form (paragraphs).
What you did and why
State your question or problem and purpose
What you thought would happen
State your hypothesis
How you did it
Summary of your experimental steps
What you learned
Summary of your analysis
What went well/ What went wrong
Conclusions
Advice
We are going to write our rough drafts in class today. You have 20 minutes to work independently, and with your group, to write a page summary.
I recommend three- five paragraphs.
HAVE SOMEONE PROOF READ YOUR WRITING! NO GRAMMATICAL ERRORS.

7. Group Review: Sexual Reproduction
Set your abstracts away in a safe place. You must type and print out this document by next class. It will be the final component to your science fair board.
Take out your notes on Page 47 and Page 49, your group whiteboard, and your dry erase marker. We are going to review for a brief quiz on Human Reproduction.
PAY ATTENTION AND FIND THE ANSWERS IN YOUR NOTES!
