Today we took up the pesticides case study questions. Then we began reviewing the ecology topics in preparation for Monday's test. If you haven't finished writing your report on the health of the Belgrave Creek, you should finish that tonight.

Breaking News!!!! The ecology test originally scheduled for Friday has been rescheduled for Monday due to the fact that many students will be missing the review session tomorrow because of a field trip.
Today students wrote a 5 paragraph opinion essay on whether they think the Belgrave Creek is a healthy aquatic ecosystem or not. Students who did not finish this today can complete it home and hand it in tomorrow. Your worksheets also need to be handed in with it.

Today students worked in their groups from the Wawanosh trip and completed all sections of the worksheets. Then we had a class discussion about the significance of each of the tests performed there. You will need to bring your worksheets to class tomorrow as we will be using them to complete an in-class ecology assessment.
