week of 2 March

Hi all,
  Am posting early for next week as I realized I need to be out Monday to help out with a family matter (nothing dire, don't worry). So I thought I'd do this now so you are clear about Monday's class.

  Here's the plan:

Monday -- work on joint questions and/or joint model
  • the joint questions can be a group effort and are due on Friday of this week
  • the joint model is a solo effort and is due Monday 16 March

Weds/Thurs/Fri -- continue with skeletal notes and brain presentations, start joint notes

As always, come to AFT if you need help!  Ms. L

Hi -- a few additional comments regarding work.  Please come to AFT if confused in any way.  Thanks, Ms. L

    1. I have graded your "Fatal Strikes" summaries.  If you look in the gradebook and don't see a grade (or a check mark) I don't have it!

    2. Emily Alexander pointed out that #11 on the joint questions is ambiguous.  I will talk about this next class, but basically there is no question to answer.  You should know (and be able to demonstrate) all of these movements.  At some point, (with fair warning) I will have you demonstrate two of these to me.  I choose which two!

DUE DATES:

• Joint questions - Thursday (p 3) 5 March or Friday (p 4) 6 March
• Joint model - Monday 16 March
• Skeletal test - probably Monday 16 March

week of 23 February

Hi everyone,
  I am looking forward to seeing all of you today.  As I said to another class, I didn't miss the intense workload of my job, but I did miss my students!  You are what makes my job meaningful.

  This week we are finishing the brain presentations today and then starting on the skeletal questions.  I will be checking them as a homework grade first.  Then we will continue talking about them on Wednesday and Thurs/Fri as well as starting the joint project and questions.

   Please be patient with me vis a vis grading.  The Guatemala trip was INTENSE and I am still processing it.  I think grading will go slowly.  Thanks for understanding this.

  As always, if you need help, come to AFT!  Ms. L

DUE DATES:
• Skeletal questions - Monday 23 Feb
• Skeletal coloring packet - Weds 25 Feb

weeks of 2 Feb and 9 Feb

Hi everyone,
 
  Just realized I forgot to post this week.  Sorry about that!  Anyway, this week you've presented your brain research.  I've really enjoyed our conversations, so thank you.

   Next week, you already have the papers you need and we've talked about all due dates, so this should be a review.  All class time is available to you as work time.  Mrs. Segal should be the sub the whole week.  I expect you to be in class, stay in class except for reasonable breaks, and stay until the end of class.  Please remember that I am legally responsible for your well-being during the day and that it causes me (and Mrs. Segal) problems if you just disappear.  It is also disrespectful.  I have prepped Mrs. Segal that you are responsible for your own time and work, so if it works better for you to use class time for other homework, I don't mind.

   Due dates are listed below.  Have a good week and enjoy your vacations!  See you on the 23rd.  Ms. Leary

DUE DATES:

• "Fatal Strikes" summary, reaction, questions (solo effort) - due by 13 Feb, Friday
• Skeletal System questions (working together fine, checked for homework grade) - due Monday 23
            Feb
• Skeletal System coloring packet (solo effort) - due Weds 25 Feb
