  5. Biology: Thursday, 9/1 Warm up • Compare (how same?) and contrast (how different?) primary and secondary succession. • What events lead to primary succession? • What events lead to secondary succession? • Quiz returns and review • Succession video clips • Start biomes ECOLOGY TEST NEXT FRIDAY (Ch 2-4)

  6. Biology: Wed., 8/31 • Stamp and review Cycles HW Warm-up • What questions do you still have for quiz? • Ch 2 quiz • Define vocab in Ch 3.1 • READ ch 3.1

  8. Biology: Monday, 8/29 • Stamp and review Food Web ws Warm Up • What is matter? • How much new matter do we get on the earth each day? • Does energy cycle? Cycles of matter note-taking Ch 2 quiz Wednesday

  9. Biology: Friday, 8/26 Warm-up Word parts in back of journal: sym-/syn-, -vore, herb-, carn-, omni- • Define biomass (p.44) • What do the arrows represent in a food chain and food web? • What is YOUR niche? • How much energy is lost with each trophic level of the energy pyramid? HW: complete interactions ws & food web/pyramid ws • Ch 2 Quiz Wednesday

  10. Text book • Go to www.glencoe.com/ose(this stands for Online Student Edition) • For the student access code, type in A025076D40

  11. Biology: Thurs., 8/25 • Turn in lab safety sheet • Stamp vocab • New Unit, new routine • Get a small (70 sht) spiral notebook to be used exclusively for biology notes and warm-ups • Date each page as you go • Write down every warm-up question • Answer each question when you enter • Correct any wrong answers when we go over them

  12. Ecology Unit Standards SB4 Students will assess the dependence of all organisms on one another and the flow of energy and matter within their ecosystems. • Investigate the relationships among organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems, and biomes. b. Explain the flow of matter and energy through ecosystems by Arranging components of a food chain according to energy flow. Comparing the quantity of energy in the steps of an energy pyramid Explaining the need for cycling of major nutrients (C, O, H, N, P). c. Relate environmental conditions to successional changes in ecosystems. d. Assess and explain human activities that influence and modify the environment such as global warming, population growth, pesticide use, and water and power consumption.

  13. Biology: Thurs., 8/25 • WARM-UP • Organize (list vertically) in order from simplest to most complex: ecosystem, community, organism, population, biosphere, biome • Between each term, write in what is added to make the next thing • Think of a biome (see bulletin board) and write an example for each level.

  14. Biology: Wed, 8/24 • Stamp & review graph sheet and x-word (both sides must be done) • Staple together packet and turn in: • X-word • Graph sheet • Char of life vocab QUIZ CW/HW: Ecology Unit: Define terms from Ch 2.1, using chapter, not glossary

  15. Biology: Tues, 8/23 • Review characteristics/sci method ws • Graphing & variables review • Sci method x-word & Bikini Bottom ws QUIZ tomorrow: sci. method, safety, characteristics of living things HW: get safety contract signed
