We have had a great start and I thought I might share some of the photos I took during the lab activity this week. I also wanted to remind you that I have added a link to this blog for grades and I encourage all of you to register with your homework.com. Don't forget to check the class schedule on our Google Calendar in the post below. See you all later,

Class Schedule available on Google Calender

hello Class,

I have posted this months schedule as a Google Calendar. If you have a Google account you can just add this to your calendar. Within the dates you will see information about what quizzes and labs on those dates. Please read before you come to class. It is important you come prepared for class by reading the assigned reading prior to coming that day. You must be prepared to be called on to discuss the assigned reading.

Best of luck,

Mr. Arias

The Los Angeles Zoo

Hello Again,

I just went to the Los Angeles Zoo with the class I am taking at the Huntington Botanical Garden. If you have the means (ride + cash) you should try and go. It was so cool! They have a relatively new Gorilla exhibit and when you see these Gorillas it is absolutely amazing. There are lions, tigers, but no bears. They have orangutans, elephants, koalas, giraffes, and students. Yeah, there are students who are in summer camp there. I have embedded some of the photos I took there. You should definitely try to go. THIS IS NOT A CLASS REQUIREMENT. I am just sharing.



For directions just plug in your information into the Google map.

My Summer Work

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to say, "Hi!" I trust all of you have picked up your books and have no doubt begun working on you summer work. If not you should start now. I also wanted to share with you what I am doing this summer. In addition to a little traveling, I am taking a botany course at the Huntington Botanical Gardens. Below is a sideshow of photos from the course.
