Week Number Five

This week we were assigned a new project. By October 31th, we have to have a completed ‘film’ to present to the class. We have a group of six people, Jasmine Kimber, Jackson Williams, Logan Edwards, Austin Hawkins, and Rianna Evans. We were also assigned a research paper due the 13th. I really like the idea of this and I think our group will be able to work together. I have started thinking about the assignment contract and who will be doing what and so far, I have not really figured it out. Monday was a ‘free day’ of sorts; we brought in food and talked through most of it to celebrate the end of the first 6 weeks. On Wednesday, we have Mrs. Woodie as a substitute and we went over vocabulary words. On Friday we took a genetics quiz where we were asked to ‘solve’ Punnett squares and analyze them. We also started what I’m calling the Make-A-Kid Lab. So far, my partner and I have a dark skinned, dark blue eyed, slightly red tinted hair, freckles all over the face, and female child. Just for the record, I never want children so this assignment has been very comical. I’m really just not a nurturing person and I’m too demented by some people’s standards.
I'm really glad our Punnet squares weren't this lengthy!

Anyway, this week has gone fairly well and I’m looking forward to the next couple of weeks.
