ACCELERATED BIOLOGY
BOOK ASSIGNMENTS
(For use with "Modern Biology" by Holt, Rinehart and Winston)

     After each of these readings a book quiz will be required. These quizzes are easily accessible on the internet, and therefore can be taken on ANY computer. If needed, computers are available in my classroom (which is usually open from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM). If you have any difficulties with any quiz please come talk
to me in the classroom or call me at home (755-4423).
