Good day to all. It is good to be back and good to see all of you.

Today we are going to start off with a little review and play some Jeopardy.

Next we are going to watch the video on Ecosystems.

We are going to end the period with an FRQ. It has been two weeks since our last one. Below is your prompt.

//There are a diverse array of biomes all over this planet. These biomes give way to numerous more ecosystems.// //Select one biome and describe the following:// //-it's location(s) on the globe and factors that cause it to exist where it does// //-a general exploratory list of flora and fauna found in the biome// //-create a food chain that could be found in this biome and be sure to highlight the different trophic levels associated with it.// //-indicate one species found in the food wed of this biome that could act as a keystone species. Explain why.// //Evaluate the changes that would occur if your selected biome incurred a lost loss of habitat by 25%.//

I will be busy grading your work because I am way behind and that is not cool. I will be passing back several graded documents and test Thursday.

For your homework you will have the first part of your test. It is a take home part so you must turn it in Thursday at the beginning of the period.

Below are Keynotes and Google Presos that will help you study for the test. [|Succession] [|Evolution] [|Natural Selection] [|Natural Selection Group 2]

Testing today. You will be taking your Unit 4: Ecosystems Test A and completing the above FRQ. Goodluck.
 * Thursday:**

For the weekend. You need to read and take notes on our next section, Unit 8: Global Water Resources. Yes we are jumping ahead a few chapters.

Along with checking your notes you will also be presenting your peer presentations on your section. We will probably get through the first four or five sections on Tuesday. Below is the shared preso for you to work on. [|Unit 8: Global Water Resources Shared Preso]
