Week of March 26th

This week we are covring Protists. Protists are early, simple animals, plants, and fungi. This is the most diverse kingdom and as such contains many very different organisims. What you really need to know, and probably should already know, is that Protists are Eukayotes.

This week we have a test over Protists on Thursday and either a Meet the Microbes project (Ms. Leslie Smith's class) or a Meet the Protists project (Mrs. Laura Smith's Class). Those are the major grades this week. I will post the rubrics for both of those today.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Ms. Leslie and Mrs. Laura Smith's Online Biology Classroom. This is the right place for you if you are looking for information on what is happening in our classrooms. Information like what is for homework, when the next test is, what projects are due or if you are looking for more info on what we have covered in class. There will be frequent updates so you will need to check back often. Any feedback you may have here is welcome and I will try my best to answer any questions or at least lead you in the right direction.

This is also a great place for parents and other adults to help keep your child up with their assignments. Your feedback is welcome too. This is not the place to discuss specifics about your child, please e-mail those questions to your student's teacher at her school address.

We will be adding more info soon.

Thanks,
Ms. Leslie Smith
