  1. WELCOME Biology with Ms. Jacobs

  2. Goals for the Day • Get to know each other • Make & understand classroom expectations/rules • Get excited about Biology! 

  3. Question of the Day Each day in class I will put up a question of the day. Students will be responsible for writing the question & their best answer. After each student has answered the question on their own we will discuss it as a class QODs will be collected before each test for points!!!

  4. Classroom Rule(s) • Have Respect. • For yourself • For your classmates • For the classroom • For the teacher • Follow all RHS handbook rules

  5. Question of the Day What does respect look like to you in the classroom?

  6. Topics for Biology

  7. Information Cards & Goals • Full name • Interests • Activities you are in or are planning to tryout for (Spring & Fall) • 3 Goals for yourself this year • What do you want to do, accomplish, or learn? • What else should I know about you?

  8. Science Autobiography • What has been your general experience of science inside or outside of school? • Did you enjoy it? What did you enjoy? • Did you not enjoy it? Why didn’t you enjoy it? • What about science/biology interests you? • What specifically do you already know/have you talked about the scientific method? • What is your experience using microscopes and how comfortable are you with the parts & rules of proper use?

  9. Lets start learning names!

  10. Question of the Day Please write this down in your notebook, and do your best to answer it! What do you have in common with the avocado plant in our room?

  11. Ten Themes of Biology Goal: Describe the 10 themes that can help you organize what you learn about biology.

  12. Tissue Organ Organ System Cell s Organism • Ten Themes of Biology • Biological Systems Cells working together Tissues working together Organs working together A living thing

  13. Ten Unifying Themes of Biology • Biological Systems – cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism, population, community, ecosystem, biosphere

  14. 2. The Cellular Basis of Life – the cell is the smallest unit of life. All living things are made of cells.

  15. 3. Form and Function – the shape of things help that organism to do what it does (Example: the anteater’s long snout enables it to squeeze in tight places to get food)

  16. 4. Reproduction and Inheritance – you inherit similarities from your parents (Example: if nothing else your parents are human and so are you!)

  17. 5. Interaction with the Environment – every organism gives off stuff to the environment and every organism takes stuff from the environment (Example: you give off heat and take in food)

  18. Question of the Day • Without looking at your notes from yesterday, try to name the five themes of life we discussed yesterday.

  19. Ten Themes of Biology Goal: Describe the 10 themes that can help you organize what you learn about biology.

  20. Energy and Life – Every organism needs energy to live. What happens when an organism runs out of energy?

  21. Regulation and Homeostasis • Homeostasis – the maintenance of a stable internal conditions in spite of changes in the external environment. • Example: Even though our surrounding temperature is constantly changing our internal temperature (body temperature) stays the same.

  22. 8. Adaptation and Evolution – Adaptation is an inherited trait that helps the organism’s ability to survive and reproduce. Evolution is just a change over time.

  23. Biology and Society – • How does our society affect life and how does our understanding of biology affect our society? • Cloning, Stem cell research, environmental issues, hunting, medicine, genetically modified crops

  24. 10. Scientific Inquiry – Asking questions, using observations or experiments to find possible answers

  25. 10 Themes Practice • Describe or relate ALL 10 themes of Biology in relation to a living thing. • Example: Describe how the form of the organism might fight a particular function or help it in its environment. • For the 10th theme (Scientific inquiry) come up with at least 2 questions about your organism.

  26. Ten Themes of Biology Goal: Describe the 10 themes that can help you organize what you learn about biology. How do you feel about your progress on our goal today? What questions do you still have?

  27. Question of the Day • Name the 5 steps of the scientific method.

  28. Goals for the day • Become more familiar with the 5 steps of the scientific method as described in our book. • Learn the function of each part of a microscope.

  29. Scientific Method • Observation • Question • Hypothesis • Prediction • Test/Experiment

  30. Scientific Method • Observation • The students in the class do not know each others names. • Question • How could I help them to learn each others names? • Hypothesis • Playing games involving their names will help them become familiar with each others names.

  31. Scientific Method • Hypothesis • Playing games involving their names will help them become familiar with each others names. • Prediction • IF we play enough games with the names of their classmates THEN students will know each others names. • Test/Experiment • Play the games

  32. Scientific method activity • In your groups look at the question you had about your insect. • Go through each step of the scientific method for your question (Make sure you number them!) and write it down. • For the test step develop and describe an experiment that you think could test your hypothesis! • Turn in to the folder when finished.

  33. Goal for the day Learn the function of each part of a microscope.

  34. Question of the Day • WITHOUT looking at your notes: Name the 10 themes of Biology

  35. F • I • B • E • R • C • R • A • B • S

  36. Goal for the day Learn the function of each part of a microscope. Become comfortable using and focusing microscopes. (While getting to know a little more about the microscopic world around us!)

  37. F • I • B • E • R • C • R • A • B • S

  38. Practice USING Microscopes • After you finish your microscope activity online get a microscope from the cart. • Get a prepared slide from the front lab bench, and focus it first on LOW power. • Draw what you find and label the Total magnification • Also draw and label the specimen under medium power. • Repeat with a wet mount slide (see Ms. Jacobs for directions)

  39. SOME of the macroscopic life in our Microscopic sample

  40. Practice USING Microscopes • After you finish your microscope activity online get a microscope from the cart. • Get a prepared slide from the front lab bench, and focus it first on LOW power. • Draw what you find and label the Total magnification • Also draw and label the specimen under medium power. • Repeat with a wet mount slide (see Ms. Jacobs for directions)

  41. Goal for the day Become comfortable using and focusing microscopes. (While getting to know a little more about the microscopic world around us!) 2. Practice preparing wet mount slides.

  42. Goal for the day Become comfortable using and focusing microscopes. 2. Practice preparing wet mount slides. Get to know a little more about the microscopic world around us!

  43. Question of the Day • How do you calculate the total magnification of a microscope? • Hint: What two things do you have to multiply together?

  44. Microbiology practice • Get a prepared slide from the front lab bench, and focus it first on LOW power. • Draw what you find and label the Total magnification • Also draw and label the specimen under medium power. • Repeat with a wet mount slide on low and high power, draw at least 5 different living organisms! (see Ms. Jacobs for instructions on making your first wet mount slide)

  45. Microscope activity • Get your assigned computer from the computer cart. (work in pairs) • Go through activity according to directions • Make sure you complete each step before moving on! • We will also be working on this tomorrow.

  46. Goal for the day Learn how to write a brief lab report Practice using the steps of the scientific method.

  47. Question of the Day • What two groups do you have in an experiment? How are they different? • Hint: Think back to Friday when we talked about the scientific method, and the miracle grow.

  48. Scientific Method ActivityLab Report • Observation • Question • Hypothesis • Prediction • Experiment

  49. Scientific Method ActivityLab Report • Procedure • Explain your test so that another person could do the exact same thing • Results/Data • This section displays your results and data. You should include at LEAST one graph or chart • Conclusions • What did you experiment show? Use your data to support your conclusions!

  50. Goal for the day Review parts, function, and use of microscopes. ASK QUESTIONS you still have over the scientific method and the use of microscopes!
