ACADEMICS: Greenwood Genetics Bus Comes to Ridge View

Ms. Cannon's 3rd/4th Block did a Blood Typing Lab.  They were given pig's blood to use, two petri dishes, and various serums to see which caused clotting to occur.  Students were able to use micro-pipettes, were given a brief presentation on blood typing, and questions to answer about the lab.  Every student enjoyed the Blood Typing Lab and were engaged, thinking, and answering questions when asked.  The guest speakers from the Greenwood Genetics Bus did a fantastic job of facilitating the lesson and keeping students' attention throughout the class period.  The day and lab was a resounding success.
