VOCABULARY: carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, water cycle, decomposer, detrivore

HOME LEARNING: HL 6 Cycles of Matter

The bell ringer was a review Kahoot.it in which we reviewed past topics, including the main ideas of biology, the needs of living things, and symbiotic interactions.

Students received HL 6, which you can find below.

This is HL 6. Use information gathered in class to answer.



Classes continued the Gizmo on Greenhouse Effects and related this knowledge to postulate on what on how greenhouse gasses affect the earth.

Some classes are still working on the Gizmo Pond Challenge and did not begin the notes on cycles.
