On Friday the class finished the fetal pig dissections. Remember to study for Monday's Lab Exam. Write me through a comment on the blog if you have any questions.

Today we began the fetal pig dissections. The abdominal cavity organs were examined. The chest cavity organs will be looked at tomorrow as we conclude the lab. Remember, your lab exam is on Monday!

On Wednesday we had a few more presentations from students and then they completed the Determining Lung Volume lab.

Today students presented their projects on a human disorder. Absent students will present tomorrow. If Wednesday is a snow day, be sure to check this blog for instructions for getting ready for the dissection.

Today we took up the circulatory system test and then we discussed some of the handouts/worksheets on the respiratory system from Friday. Students completed all the questions on these sheets, including the function table on all the parts of the respiratory sytem. We will be doing the lab called "Measuring Lung Volumes" tomorrow. Students should have read this lab by now.
