Welcome Back!

Welcome to biology! I am excited to meet you!  I wanted to introduce you to our class blog.  This is where you should go to find out what you miss if you are absent. I update it every A day. This is also where you can go to take open note quizzes and tests (see the tab above labeled quizzes and tests)

1)  You and a parent or guardian need to go over my disclosure document (Due August 22).  If you prefer a paper copy you can get one from me during class and then you can have your parent email me or send a note stating that you went over the disclosure together.  Below are my disclosure documents in google forms.  Choose the class in which you are enrolled, fill in the information, and you will get credit.
General Biology Disclosure
Honors Biology Disclosure

2)  Here are the required projects for honors credit.  You do not have to be enrolled in the honors class to get honors credit, you can simply complete the required projects and I will submit your name to receive honors credit at the end of the year. See also the Honors tab at the top of the page for more information or click on the link below.

3)  If you want honors credit you need to get started on your insect collection.  Here is some information to help you get started Early Insect Info and here is a link that gives a detailed description of the Insect Project Requirements. I will supply pins and pinning blocks, but you will need to obtain your own box and styrofoam.  You may purchase them from the school for $2.25. Pay in the financial office and then bring me a receipt.  

4) If you would like email or text reminders about deadlines and tests please register for Remind 101.  Remind is a one-way text messaging and email system. With Remind 101, all personal information remains completely 
confidential. Teachers will never see your phone number, nor will you ever see theirs. You can sign up for either text or email messages.  See direction below:
