Freshmen Academy Biology I 

 

Welcome to team A of the Freshmen Academy!! 

 

How to be successful....

  1. 1. Read the chapter before we start notes!!! This helps you to ask questions when we go over the material in class. 
  2. 2. Utilize the flashcards, online quizzes, video clips/animations from your book at http://www.il.biologygmh.com  
  3. 3. Ask Questions!!! I am not a mind reader, so ask I will not bite your head off :).
  4. 4. Come to ELO for help! Don't wait till the day of the test to tell me you don't understand something!!!!
  5. 5. Form study groups. You may use my room after school for a place to meet, I might even join you :).
