Anatomy, DNA, Regents Oh my!

What a year. Students were instructed to be able to pass the regents. The students performed many labs with the intent of learning. One of the most fun labs was when students were designing a baby. Wow, the students were laughing the entire lab. We also dissected a few animals: frog, earthworm, and a crayfish. Some students learned that dissection is not as bad as they thought it would be. While discussing DNA bases (guanine, cytosine, adenine, and thymine) we learned that making a mnemonic would help to remember which bases go together. Gary Coleman is where iT’s At. Guanine and cytosine combine while Thymine and Adenine combine. Living environment had a great year with many things that students had to learn.
