Living Things Vocabulary

I have created some really helpful digital flashcards on a website called studystack.com. Throughout the year, I will be encouraging you to visit this site to learn new vocabulary words. The more you practice, the more you will learn them!

Beautiful Bones and Marvelous Muscles

I have created a new StudyStack for our skeletal system and muscular system unit. The sooner you start learning these terms, the better prepared you will be to move on to the next body system.

Be sure to try both!

Genes, Heredity, and DNA... Oh my!

I have released the flashcards for chapters six and seven. Please start to review them. I will be giving you a hard copy of them on Monday. Remember: Flashcards are useless if you don't practice them! They're small enough to keep in your pocket. I recommend bringing them with you wherever you go- to the mall, the grocery store, or wherever! You can spend a few short moments reviewing as you are driving around or waiting in line at the stores! Enjoy!
