Students will be able to:
use the information from  virtual activites, power point presentations, and classroom discussions to
-describe how organisms maintain a stable environment.

Students completed an online lab experiment that demonstrated how homeostasis helps maintain stable environments in other organisms. The activities can be found at: 
Temperature and Metabolic Activity. Be sure to record your hypothesis, your independent (test) variable, dependent (outcome) variable, constants, and all data. Make a graph of the data and write out your conclusions.

You can also peruse through the activity on pill bugs, found at  What is a pill bug?

Your notebook is due on Friday. Be sure it contains all notes on Eclipses, including home learnings and GIZMO; home learnings 1-6; and notes on the endocrine system, including home learning 8 and the GIZMO  sheet on homeostasis. Be sure to include the information from Temperature and Metabolic Activity and What is a pill bug?
