High School Biology LAB - Fall Semester (16 Weeks)
Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
The course is available in FALL and SPRING Semesters, and they both run for 18 weeks. During the FALL Semester, you will study smaller-scale biology topics like cell biology and genetics. In the SPRING Semester, the course will include traditional anatomy/dissection, dissection alternatives will be used in preparation for or in place of dissection. You have the option to take a separate lecture course that complements the lab course. Lab is our opportunity to observe the observable and test...
I aim to support your student in building confidence and practical skills through guidance in their studies. Although books have their uses, nothing compares to the benefits of hands-on learning and witnessing the marvels of Biology. My love for Biology stems from its deceptive simplicity, which upon deeper examination reveals a truly astounding complexity. For a few years, I served as an in-person Biology lab instructor for multiple sections at a local co-op. During my tenure, I guided pupils through experiments, and dissection exercises featuring real specimens such as crayfish, earthworms, perch, and frogs. I also helped students develop their lab techniques, microscopy and taught them how to identify hard-to-spot details. My area of study is Biology, and I hold a Bachelor of Science degree where I learned about mammallogy, ornithology, ecology, microbiology, histology, aquatic invertebrates. In my co-op lab classes, I gained hands-on experience with microscopes and learned how to create slides rather than just viewing prepared ones. I am now providing microscope classes through Outschool, where students are encouraged to use their compound or digital microscopes during open lab time. I utilize digital cameras to share my own microscope view, as well as encourage students' to share their microscope view. While I value traditional lab techniques, I also believe that technology can enhance the lab experience when appropriate. *We will follow study of traditional biology topics that are observable, we will briefly cover topic that are considered theories or are debated. The main focus of class will be observational biology.
Homework Offered
Optional: Some labs may require outside of class time to process/ grow.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Optional: Labs checked for write up completion and neatness.Grades Offered
Many of the labs will use a compound microscope, full list of supplies will be given upon signing up. General microscope supplies: -microscope -slide preparation kit - blank slides, cover slips, eye droppers, tweezers, probe -optional methylene blue, iodine -"BASIC BIOLOGICAL" slide kit* (Minimal 25, 60 is better - 100 or 120 will be used in other classes that are offered) notebook for labs small thermometer, 10 mL & 100 mL beakers edibles: sandwich cookies, sprinkles, M&Ms, skittles, twizzlers, colored marshmallows, gummy bears
Some labs will use food, substitutions can be made as needed for other or non-food items. Lab safety will be part of this course, it is helpful to have clear space dedicated to lab time. Microscope is optional but strongly encouraged. Please confirm class aligns with local standards.
Labs can be sequenced with topics in biology text optional (for example CK-12)
I am excited for your learner to join my classroom soon, now that summer is here. My teaching philosophy is centered on making learning enjoyable, relevant, and interesting. Moreover, I believe that intelligence and creativity are closely...
