13-14Slide2

Warm-ups 9/4/13

What is the purpose of the syllabus? (cite evidence from the document to support your claim)

Answer

two

of the following questions.

What makes you feel comfortable in the classroom?

What are some things the teacher can do to support your learning?

What are some things your classmates can do to support your learning?

What would get in the way of your learning?Slide3

Warm-ups 9/5/13

The marshmallow tower challenge had nothing directly to do with biology so why would I have you do it?

Have your class norms ready for discussion.Slide4

WARM-Ups 9/6/13

On the student information cards you filled out on day 1, 0% of you drew a picture of a female scientist. Why?

Also on the student information cards, many people said they wanted to “pass or do well” the AP test. Be specific, write down your goal for that test. A 1 is the lowest score you can receive and a 5 is the highest.

Slide5

Warm-ups 9/9/13

Did you complete the reading over the weekend? If so, how did it go?

If you didn’t set a goal for the AP test last Friday, do so today.Slide6

Warm-ups 9/10/13

Based on the CH 1 reading and your prior knowledge, which of the shapes/lines below best represents the science process? Why?

Biology is the study of life. Can biologists (scientists) answer all questions about life? If not, provide an example of a question which cannot be answered by science.Slide7

Warm-Ups 9/11/13

“Air

is

matter.

We found that the weight of the ball increases each time we pumped more air into

it.

This shows that air has weight, one of the characteristics

of matter.” Does the above quote show claim, evidence, and reasoning? If not, which is missing.Slide8

Warm-ups 9/12/13

How did the cube activity demonstrate the following: the importance of patterns in the science process, the limitations of science conclusions/knowledge, and the need for revising hypotheses when newly found evidence does not support them?

of constructing a graph or data table when data from an experiment is collected? Slide9

Warm-Ups 9/13/13
