    In Home Daycare Available

    August 31, 2010

    My name is Sarah Ohar and my husband is an OSM-III student at VCOM.  I am a stay at home mom of two.  For the past two years, I have run an in-home daycare with all of the same children attending.  But recently, two of the families I watched for moved out of state and I am looking to fill their spots.  We have a fenced in yard and lots and lots of toys.  We spend all day playing, doing crafts and reading books.  I tailor learning activities to the age of the child.  Except for one movie on Friday mornings, we do not watch TV.  I have excellent references and lots of experience with children. 

     

    Please call me at (314) 753-0174 for more information if you are interested in finding out more about my in-home daycare.

    Biochem Sample Test Questions

    August 28, 2010

    I put together a bunch of example test questions Dr. Mahaney threw out in lecture. Some are directly from the slides or notes section, others are just questions he asked during lecture. There is a partial answer key at the end. Hope this helps!

    I put all the cofactor images together to accompany the chart my wife made below. One sheet has the images with labels, and the other is just the images by themselves so you can practice labeling them. Good luck!
