1 This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY
January 5th, 2015 DO NOW Objective Students will review classroom expectations Prompt Describe one thing you did over the break. Create one goal you’d like to achieve in school before the end of the school year. Reminders: --BRING A NEW NOTEBOOK BY FRIDAY! --KEEP ALL HANDOUTS IN YOUR SCIENCE FOLDER. --THEY WILL BE PLACED IN YOUR NEW NOTEBOOK ON FRIDAY. This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY

2 What are the expectations that govern Science class?
January 5th, 2015 ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What are the expectations that govern Science class? OBJECTIVES: Classroom expectation turn and talk. Expectations role-play.

3 Agenda Reminders WRITE IN AGENDA:
January 7th, 2014 WRITE IN AGENDA: HW: Dichotomous Key Practice, Due Friday, January 10 Bring Journals by THIS FRIDAY, January 9th.

4 Classroom Expectations Jigsaw
January 7th, 2014 VOICE LEVELS: Tables 1, 3, and 5, Why do we use different voice levels 0-4? What are they? Give an example of when we would each voice level. How do we answer questions? CLASSWORK: Tables 4, 6, and 8 How should independent work be completed differently than partner or group work? What would be similar about independent, partner, and group work? GRADE IMPROVEMENT: Tables 2 and 7 Where do you get late work? What are some ways you can improve your grade? When are tutorials?

5 EXPECTATIONS ROLE-PLAY
Each group will be given a situation or scenario to act out. Decide who will play each part Take 5 minutes to plan your act When one group performs, the other groups will observe and critique.

6 This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY
January 6th, 2015 DO NOW Objective SWBAT explore how scientists identify and classify organisms. Prompt Using as much detail as possible, describe the mushroom below. Stinky squid (Pseudocolus fusiformis) Reminders: --BRING A NEW NOTEBOOK BY FRIDAY! --KEEP ALL HANDOUTS IN YOUR SCIENCE FOLDER. --THEY WILL BE PLACED IN YOUR NEW NOTEBOOK ON FRIDAY. This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY

7 TURN and TALK Why does this organism have two names?
January 6th, 2015 TURN and TALK What do we mean when we say “external structures”? Why does this organism have two names? Stinky squid (Pseudocolus fusiformis)

8 How do scientists use biological diagrams to classify organisms?
January 6th, 2015 ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How do scientists use biological diagrams to classify organisms? OBJECTIVES: Biological Drawing Classifying Organisms Practice Dichotomous Key Two-Column Notes

9 Introduction to Biological Drawings: Plant Anatomy
Plant features can be very complex and varied (different). With your table, discuss some of the differences in the leaves shown to the right.

10 Examples of Biological Drawings – Plant & Roots

11 Examples of Biological Drawings – Flowering Plant

12 Examples of Biological Drawings – Plant Leaves

13 Biological Diagram: Native Species
January 8/9, 2014 Biological Diagram: Native Species Take out your sheet titled, “How to make a Biological Diagram” 2. You will observe a plant specimen closely 3. Create a DETAILED, LABELED biological drawing of your specimen. “Biological Diagram” Do not copy Picture Pg .

14 Biological Drawing Rubric

15 Outside Expectations Level one voice. Stay on task.
No running or playing. When finished, wait by the teacher. DRAW IN DETAIL!!!

16 Classifying Organisms
Turn and Talk (Partner – Voice Level 1) Which external structures would you use to classify these organisms into two groups?

17 Biological Diagram: Native Species
January 8/9, 2014 Biological Diagram: Native Species Take out your Biological Diagram 2. Compare your drawing with the others at your table 3. Identify similarities and differences between all of them. 4. Classify them into two categories based on their external structures. (Be prepared to share) “Biological Diagram” Do not copy Picture Pg .

18 Video: Classifying Organisms
TED ED

19 This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY
January 8/9th, 2014 DO NOW (Pg. 79 in journal) Cedillo Objective SWBAT explore how scientists identify and classify organisms. Prompt Explain what external structures you might use to identify the two breeds of dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) below. Breed: Chihuahua Breed: Yellow Labrador Retriever Reminders: --Voice Level 0 during Do Now --Remember independent work expectations --New composition books due Monday This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE FRIDAY

20 January 8/9, 2014 ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How do scientists use external features to classify and identify organisms? OBJECTIVES: 1. Create a biological diagram identifying major structures of a plant 2. Practice using observations to identify a species 3. Use a dichotomous key to identify a native Texas plant species

21 Finish Reading – POPCORN!!
Finish reading “The Key to Identification” Popcorn Reading Rules: Read at least 3 sentences Pay attention! You can call on someone more than once but not if they were just reading before you (no ping-pong popcorn) Crash Course biology: Taxonomy

22 Tape Card on to Page 81 WRITE: Prediction: _____________________
Actual: _______________________ Using the checked external structures, what type of animal organism do you predict you have?

23 Animal Choices Determine which organism is represented by your observation card.

24 Answers

25 Observation Card Questions (Page 81)
1. Did you predict correctly? Why or why not? 2. How does observing an animal’s features help identify that animal? Using dichotomous keys

26 Dichotomous Key Example
Domestic Horse Sea Lion Grebe Big-Eared Bat Goldfish Hummingbird Lizard Rattlesnake

27 Dichotomous Key Example 2

28 Dichotomous Key Example 3

29 CARD SORT Match the 4 new cards with the appropriate organisms.

30 Answers

31 “The Key to Identification”
Partner-read the article. What should our voice levels be? As you read, you will work with your partner to take two-column notes on page _____. Topic Details

32 Ball Moss Live Oak Cedar Elm Ashe Juniper

33 NATIVE PLANT IDENTIFICATION
Using the dichotomous key handouts, determine the scientific names for each the specimens at your table.

34 Identifying Aliens Using your handout, follow the clues on the front in order to put the correct binomial nomenclature (genus species) of the alien species under its picture. Practice Alien: I do, we do, you do Work on dichotomous key practice for rest of class.

35 This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE TODAY
January 10th 2014 DO NOW (Pg. 79 in journal) Cedillo Objective SWBAT explore how scientists identify and classify organisms. Prompt What is a dichotomous key? Why do scientists use them? Reminders: --Voice Level 0 during Do Now --Remember independent work expectations --TAKE OUT YOUR HOMEWORK This week’s HW: Dichotomous Key Practice – DUE TODAY

36 Today ESSENTIAL QUESTION:
January 10, 2014 ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How can you use dichotomous keys to classify and identify organisms? OBJECTIVES: Set up new notebooks Practice using dichotomous keys to identify alien species

37 Homework

38 Notebook Setup.

39 Identifying Aliens cont’d.
Due at end of class!
