• Each class this week will begin with a podcast warm-up from the NOVA website. Students are to write down two concepts each day on their warm-up sheets.
• Students will prepare a "Geologic Eras" organizer on Monday to study from in preparation for a quiz on Thursday. Time will be given in class to prepare for and try the Geologic Time Quiz.
• The Fossil Assemblage Lab will take place on Tuesday to reinforce concepts about index fossils, relative dating and the Law of Superposition.
• Wednesday will be another lab day. Students will be using a dichotomous key for common invertebrate fossils in the Michigan Paleozoic Seas lab.
• The Geologic Eras Quiz will be given on Thursday. More time will be given for preparation and trying the "Geologic Time Quiz as well.
• Friday is Good Friday so school will not be in session for students nor teachers. Easter is on Sunday April 12th. Here's an astronomy fact for Easter - Did you know that Easter always falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox? That's why the date of Easter varies from year to year unlike Christmas which is always on the same date. If you can recite this fact from memory to Mr. Kinnan at school he will award you 5 bonus points!
