  1. January 5th, 2015 DO NOW This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY

  2. January 6th, 2015

  3. Classroom Expectations Jigsaw January 7th, 2014 • VOICE LEVELS: Tables 1, 3, and 5, • Why do we use different voice levels 0-4? What are they? Give an example of when we would each voice level. How do we answer questions? • CLASSWORK: Tables 4, 6, and 8 • How should independent work be completed differently than partner or group work? What would be similar about independent, partner, and group work? • GRADE IMPROVEMENT: Tables 2 and 7 • Where do you get late work? What are some ways you can improve your grade? When are tutorials?

  4. January 6th, 2015 TURN and TALK

  5. Introduction to Biological Drawings: Plant Anatomy Plant features can be very complex and varied (different). With your table, discuss some of the differences in the leaves shown to the right.

  6. Examples of Biological Drawings – Plant & Roots

  7. Examples of Biological Drawings – Flowering Plant

  8. Examples of Biological Drawings – Plant Leaves

  9. January 8/9, 2014 Biological Diagram: Native Species “Biological Diagram” Take out your sheet titled, “How to make a Biological Diagram” 2. You will observe a plant specimen closely 3. Create a DETAILED, LABELED biological drawing of your specimen. Do not copy Picture Pg .

  10. Biological Drawing Rubric

  11. Outside Expectations • Level one voice. • Stay on task. • No running or playing. • When finished, wait by the teacher. • DRAW IN DETAIL!!!

  12. Classifying Organisms • Turn and Talk (Partner – Voice Level 1) • Which external structures would you use to classify these organisms into two groups?

  13. January 8/9, 2014 Biological Diagram: Native Species “Biological Diagram” Take out your Biological Diagram 2. Compare your drawing with the others at your table 3. Identify similarities and differences between all of them. 4. Classify them into two categories based on their external structures. (Be prepared to share) Do not copy Picture Pg .

  17. Tape Card on to Page 81 WRITE: Prediction: _____________________ Actual: _______________________ Using the checked external structures, what type of animal organism do you predict you have?

  18. Animal Choices • Determine which organism is represented by your observation card.

  19. Answers

  20. Observation Card Questions (Page 81) 1. Did you predict correctly? Why or why not? 2. Why does observing an animal’s features help identify that animal? Using dichotomous keys
