Zoology

Course Description

Welcome to Zoology! Below are some of the upcoming events for Zoology and a little information on how I run my class. If possible, please have your student bring a 1/2" binder (or larger, just not smaller because they won't fit) to school on Monday. I will be passing out packets to the students that will go in the binders. All of their homework, notes, and vocabulary roots will be in the binder.  

Vocabulary Quizzes: Because Zoology has a unique way that it names things, we will have a weekly quiz over the Greek and Latin roots upon which these names are based. The quizzes will generally be on Fridays, but may be on a Monday if there is a test on Friday. Attached are the vocabulary words. 

Tests: We will have a test over each chapter. Each chapter takes about two weeks to complete. I will email you the study guide at least 3 days before the test, and your student will also get a hard copy. 

Notes: All of the notes that are in the green book (binder), will be filled in during class, using the power points that I have prepared. If you would like a copy of the power point, please let me know, and I will get it to you. 

Contacting me: My planning period is from 10:55-11:30. I will return any emails or phone calls during this time. You may email me at [email protected] or call my room (which will automatically go to voicemail) at 724-883-2310 *2216.

Webpage: You can access my webpage by going towww.jmsd.org. Please choose “Contact Us”, then “Middle/High School Staff Directory” & click on my name to access my webpage.
