1/22 scientific vocab building

In-Class:
Had time to ask questions about their genetics projects. Copied prefixes, suffixes and root words into notebooks and created new words from assigned word chunk. When students come across medical terminology with which they are not familiar it works well to chop the word into its prefixes, suffixes and root in order to decode the meaning.
Homework:
Complete research for genetics project. Midway check over project research tomorrow, Wednesday January 23. Questions from the overview should be complete or nearly complete for full credit.
