Welcome to the Human Bio II Blog!

Hello Class and Welcome to your Human Bio II Blog,

Today is research day for your individual criteria. I will be passing back your group folders. Some groups still need to complete the TASK 1 packet so that I can give you a grade. If you are still unsure about the 2 Individual criteria, Group Name, and,  Individual Roles in the group come and talk with me when we get started on the research.
