Are you interested in learning about the world around you? Do you ever wonder how scientists study the world and understand its beauty?  This 18 week course will provide you the foundation of High School Biology concepts.  We will explore important scientists who laid the groundwork for the progression of science today.  Be ready to learn the important techniques,  methods, and principles of understanding the world around you.  We will look into major units of study: cells, genetics, evolution and ecology.  I will teach you the terminology, application to scenarios, real world data analysis, problem-solving, and understanding the interrelatedness of concepts.  This class will cover the main areas of study that I typically teach in a traditional class setting.  This class does give you the option to complete activities or worksheets outside of class, which ranges from 15-60 minutes.  

I will use a few different methods to teach you. Sometimes the order of events vary but generally the class layout is listed below.  First, we will be viewing concepts via powerpoint presentation.  Then we will practice vocabulary via Quizlet and Quizizz.  Next,  we will apply our knowledge with problem-solving using worksheets, online annotation, and games.  Finally, we will review via discussion, video, and data analysis.  I will provide you with the resources for the week of class.  Materials vary per week.  The week of class you will receive materials ranging from guided notes, a copy of the vocabulary, worksheets, and a hyperdoc page with website links.   Additional resources will be available to further practice outside of class.  We will interact directly in the Outschool classroom and use other resources as supplementary tools. 

The objective of this class is to cover the majority of the year of Biology concepts that you would typically encounter in a High School Biology setting.  This class does not include lab work.  I do offer a separate course for Biology labs.  

Note:  This class is rigorous and will cover a lot in 18 weeks.  Attentiveness and effort will be expected to succeed and master the vocabulary.
