They rotate every two years. So a person may get to do all 4 from 7th to 12th grade, or they may only get to do three (like me).

I meant the biology ID. Earth science ID is every 3 years (fossils --> rocks-->fossils), and the rest, im not totally sure.

Well, if they can give olivine and epidote, and bornite and chalcopyrite on the same mineral list, then their evilness knows no bounds.
Seriously, those pairs of minerals were nearly indistinguishable.

Not really. There are a lot with distinct sounds [loons, grebes, mergansers, etc... (sorry, i cant spell)]. I think they'll be A LOT easier than frog calls.

To study bird calls I went to borders + bought a bird book w/ bird calls + started to listen to them.
Also, you can always go birdwatching around your neighborhood.
