Week of 1/31

Students did their final genetic disorder presentations on Monday and Tuesday. Overall, students did a great job on their projects! Projects will be graded and handed back by early next week.

On Friday, students were introduced to the concepts of adaptations, evolution, and natural selection. We discussed the voyage of Charles Darwin and the important discoveries that he made on the Galapagos Islands. Next week students will be required to create a "designer animal" that has the proper adaptations to survive in a unique environment.
