Total of 10 points in a typical week. • ASSIGN TABLE LEADERS. 2 Extra Credit points/week EVERYONE AT TABLE has the sheet complete and turned in. • Entry Task – Monday • If you needed to explain photosynthesis to a 3rd grader, what would you say? Please write it out for your entry task • Take out photosynthesis labs and review answers.
Biology 1/31/12 • Entry Task – Tuesday • On a scale of 1 to 4, how well do you think you met these standards? • I can explain how plant cells use photosynthesis to produce their own food.
