4/30

Wow! The students were amazed at the bacterial growth on their petri dishes last week!  Though there was a lot of bacteria growth, students did understand that not all bacteria is pathogenic.  After students viewed the various types of growth, we wrapped up our Bacteria Unit with a short quiz. 
Our next step into the various kingdoms are protist and fungi.  Last week, students did a Pond Water Observation and students were able to see all the critters, mostly protist, though some small animals too, in the water!  Students did a really nice job classifying the different organisms.
This week students will be learning more about protists and fungi!
