First Day Of Classes!

Welcome all! Today we will introduce ourselves and go over what is Biology.

Introductions:
1.) What is your name?
2.) What are your future plans?
3.) What do you hope to learn or get out of this class?

Biology is the natural science that involves the study of life and living organisms, including their physical and chemical structure, function, development and evolution.

Welcome

Welcome to The Bio Buzz! This year we will be learning a lot of new concepts and learning how to apply them in the real world. Can't wait to get this year started.
