2. Review critical thinking #4 (work in groups to share experimental designs) and present to the class.
3. Hand out progress reports to students with below a B (84%).

Honors Homework: Read section 42.9 and answer the following question:
Take a trip into the future. How far into the future is up to you. Write a newspaper article on how global warming has affect the lakes. You may want to use Lake Winnipesaukee as the basis for your story. Think about how global warming could effect spring overturn and thermocline formation. Make sure your newspaper article includes: a title, a date of publication (may 12, 20-whatever), a location. The best articles from each class will be posted here.
