week of 12 January

Hi all,
  Short week this week, just finishing up the cell cycle stuff and getting ready for the midterm.  Please note that the midterm review packet is not required, but is HIGHLY suggested!  You are welcome to work with other people on this and each section is worth 5 points if you do it.

  You can use your foldable on the midterm (there is no "no notes" part of the midterm).  Remember the midterm is worth 10% of the semester one grade.  The BEST way to create your foldable is to write everything you want on it from scratch (do not type).  While you can put old note cards in there, I HIGHLY suggest that you add to it if you do this.  Rewriting information is a great way to study and most students who have done this tell me they found it helpful.

  MISSING WORK???  Please check the gradebook!  If you see zeroes, I don't have the work from you.  You must hand this in by Tuesday 20 January at the latest.  Please see me if you are confused.

 AFT tomorrow: please come to either A or B session rather than C as I will be busy C with Honors Biology students.  If C is your only time open, then come in anyway.  Please also remember that we have AFT on Thursday and Friday too, so there is plenty of time to get help!

 Thanks, Ms. L
