M16 Recap blog post at Sahm-I-Am
Quizlet Vocabulary Game, M16
Not my favorite post of the year -- seems a little dull. (sorry!) But there's just not a lot of videos to be found without evolution in them! And very few that are really informative that have anything to do w/ this module.
Also, it's a pretty basic module I think. The second half of Biology is definitely easier than the first! Yay! =D
(1) p. 495-498a, Class Reptilia
Reptiles and Amphibians, Part 1
