Notes Correction and Test

I do understand there was an issue in my notes in 6th pd. today, and I would like to clarify what needs to be fixed. The right side of the heart handles deoxygenated blood, and the left side handles oxygenated blood. My hands were typing faster than my brain, and I transposed (switched) the chambers on one slide, although the other one was correct on the other. I am posting those notes here for your review and the changed text is in red. I also plan to review this section again with the students tomorrow before the test and will make sure that they are prepared. If there are issues after the test has been given, I will take that into consideration in grading.

Please keep in mind, my primary concerns are a) the students receive accurate information from me and b) that they do a good job of learning the material so that they are well prepared for high school and college. I always tell them that grades are secondary to learning the material and if they learn the material and work hard, the grades will come. Almost all of our students have worked extraordinarily hard this year and have earned the grades they have. Lets finish the year strong and prepare for the final stretch.
