A couple things....

Small mammal trapping labs are due Friday 18 May. This is MORE than enough time. These will appear end up in the 2nd 5 week period. See me for a library pass if you still need computer use. REMEMBER: make sure you talk about your hypothesis in the discussion section, give credit to any sources you used (this means the lab handout), and make it professional-looking. You are presenting these findings to the scientific community and you want it clean and well-written.

Friday is the make-up field trip to the floating classroom on Cayuga Lake. If you are a person going, make sure you wear proper clothing and sunscreen and bring a lunch.

"Rot-in-Groton" grand opening is Sat. at noon. We made the Ithaca Journal. Check it out here. Chicken BBQ is on 'till it runs out. We will also have stuffed portabella mushrooms and wild leek and potato soup made by Mr. DeVoe for the vegetarians that show up!

Monday we begin composting our lunch scraps during lunchtime. There will be buckets set up at the end of the recycle/garbage line. This is where you can put things like apple cores, banana peels, leftover carrots, salad, and bread crusts. Remember...NO MEAT or DAIRY!
