We had some excellent discussions today about the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration.  It is always great to see that a lot of critical thinking is taking place!

During class, we talked about fermentation including alcoholic fermentation in yeast and lactic acid fermentation in the muscles of humans.

Also, we kicked off class with a gallery walk for students to share their illustrations and poems depicting photosynthesis and respiration.  Here is a lovely example of student work:
