Quizlet Extra Credit

Just a reminder...I'm offering extra credit on the next quiz for the people who score the highest scores on the Quizlet flashcard set I made. What a great way to spend your day off :)

High Scores thus far are by L. Bradford & L. Kane & I. Swanson.

Quiz over this material will be Wednesday or Thursday (we'll discuss this tomorrow).

Enjoy your day off.

DNA Extra Credit

If you choose to do so, you may make a DNA model for extra credit. If your model meets all of the requirements listed in the rubric, then I'll eliminate your lowest quiz or lab score (not including the midterm exam, plant formal lab, or the Code Blue project. The final due date for the model is Jan. 14, 2011
