AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP

Students had a study session prior to taking the Unit 2 Biology Assessment. Unfortunately, Dropbox wasn't working, so we could not use the prepared presentation, Instead, we reviewed by using Quizizz. However, you can find the presentation below.

Students then took the assessment. WE will correct the exam next class period.
