All classes have completed units on Ecology this semester.  When I teach this topic, I try to encourage you to have an appreciation of the incredible area in which we are blessed to live.  Please describe (climate, flora, fauna, etc.)  your favorite natural area.  The area you describe does not have to be local, but you must describe it in your own words.   

As you know, we are very fortunate to be gaining a Science Wing addition at Cleveland High School.  We are so grateful to the members of the School Board, parents, and others in the community who have supported us in this endeavor.  Juniors, you have been in our science rooms all these years and know how badly we need new rooms, labs, furniture, and equipment.  Many of you have given comments and participated in science focus groups meetings.  We are so appreciative.  Freshmen (and possibly sophomores), you will actually have the opportunity to take some science classes in the new wing.  We are still planning specifics regarding the Biology, Chemistry, and Physics rooms.  Please post all your ideas.  How do you think the rooms should be arranged?  What type of furniture would you like?  What type of equipment do you think we should have?  What type of flooring would be best?  Where and how big should the sinks be?  What about computers?  How many should we have?  Where should they be located?  How would you like to use them in a science class?  Please tell us what you think about these things or anything else you can think of pertaining to the CHS Science Wing. 

OK, this one is only for seniors.  You are leaving soon and we will miss you (really, we will).  So, before you go, please tell us about your favorite memory involving CHS science.  This can be about any science class (not just AP Biology II Honors) or activity during your time at CHS.
