1. Lab analysis - CER and discussion
2. Buffet: POGIL and/or practice problems; Darwin's summary  
3. Exam Wednesday; utilize the many review resources: 
    MC review: Review Book Q  (slide 1) and handout 
​    FRQ - take one, or score students answer of the same q
    Review Sheet

    Lab discussion Q

HW:  Buffet: either one of the HW assignments,  and the Darwin summary text.
          Study! Exam Wednesday. Review via the review sheet, Mader online quiz, by
marking up and writing summaries of Cornell notes, rewriting your notes into
​a more succinct and organized (outline!) form, etc.

 Ask me about the STAR PARTY tonight! 
1. Whiteboarding: HW practice
    ch 16 notes stamped
2. Lab: Quantifying Change, part 2
     discuss, run the model
    PPT: sickle cell 


HW: Quantifying Evolution lab (part B)
 • Write the pre-lab elements 
 • The class data is here:  3A   4A  If you want to work in the sheet, save a copy.
 • Complete the data table, finding the allele frequencies. Use the formula on the handout, not the HW approach (doesn't work when  there are no heterozygotes)  
 • Graph change over time for all three models. All frequency data in a single graph is fine; if you make separate graphs, keep Y axis constant.

1. PPT  - Random change drives evolution too
2. Selection lab:
a. graph the change in frequency over time (generations)
b. Lab analysis: as on lab notebook reference page
   • CER - make a claim that reflects the lab objective/question
   • Discussion - reflect on hypothesis, methodology, new questions
c. Discussion questions
(3. PPT: Is phenotypic change evolution?)  

HW: • Finish the lab : graph and analysis (use the Lab Reference handout to make sure your work is complete)
• Watch Bozeman Science: The 5 Fingers of Evolution
• Do some reading on the genetics of taste at this link. Record your notes as part of the background for the next lab.
