Inquiry Lesson

For my inquiry lesson this week, I chose a lesson on genetics. Because school is still out here where I teach, I am using my daughter, niece, and nephew for this lesson. They were given six genetic traits. They had to determine if they had dominant or recessive triats for these particular triats. They then had to predict the outcome of their parents traits, and then find the actual outcome. They combined their findings finding the ratio and percentage of each trait. They then drew a bar graph for each given trait. They chose one trait to draw a punnett square, and one trait to do a pie chart. The pages that I used for them to gather this information would not upload for me on here. Below are pictures of them doing the project, and then the project once they completed it.

Ice Caps

I know I am a little late with this, and I do apologize. I had a close family friend pass away, but here is my post:

I found that in my experiment, I had no water flow out of the bowl. The only water that I had coming from the bowl was from the condensation. I did the experiment twice just to make sure I had done it correctly and I got the same results both times. I feel that the displacement of the ice was the reason for this.

Maybe I am wrong, but I feel that the global warming issue is hyped up way more than it should be. I am not saying there are not issues or problems. What I am saying is that I do not think that it is as bad as some people make it out to be. Like I said...I am not an expert on this matter by no means, this is just my opinion.
