Biology Curriculum Full Year Bundle

A biology curriculum bundle that has everything you need to teach high school biology for the entire year. This year long biology curriculum bundle includes models, case studies, task cards, labs, PowerPoints, study guides, projects, and now with the introduction of the model-based learning journal (ATLAS), it truly supports NGSS pedagogy as well as content. This curriculum has everything you need to teach a successful year of high school biology.

Many items are editable to tailor to your needs. A suggested pacing guide is included for every topic as a guide to sequence the items in the bundle.

Here are some answers to the Biology Curriculum FAQs:

✓ Yes, this biology curriculum bundle does support NGSS

✓ Yes, there are digital (paperless) options for nearly every resource in the year long biology curriculum.

✓ Yes, many items are editable.

✓ Pacing Guides are included for day to day planning.

✓ The curriculum is flexible, easy to use, and easy to modify.

✓ The ATLAS journals support NGSS pedagogy. The ATLAS journals come with a separate pacing guide to use before teacher-lead instruction. ATLAS is a supplemental inquiry/model based learning journal and is completely optional. If you choose not to use it as is, you can pull activities from it to use however you wish. It is a great resource to have on hand.

The formation of my biology curriculum has been a journey that includes years of designing, fine-tuning, collaborations, researching, and FUN! 

Here are some things I did NOT want in my biology curriculum:

• Heavy language that blocked students ability to absorb the material. 
• Items that lacked visuals or were not aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
• Materials that did not bring home the message. 
• Outdated material that did not reach diverse learners.
• Materials that were not relevant or engaging. 

Here’s what I did want in my biology curriculum:

• Activities that reach a wide variety of learners and provide differentiation. 
• Resources that are designed for student comprehension. 
• Materials  that offer adaptability so they can work in a wide variety of classrooms. 
• Materials that are designed to be aesthetically pleasing (but not overwhelming to the eye). 
• Engaging and effective resources. 

Who is this biology curriculum for?

• New Teachers that have limited resources and want a dependable curriculum to help their students.
• Veteran teachers looking to freshen up their curriculum with new ideas and resources. 
• Any teacher that has been assigned to teach biology and does not want to reinvent the wheel. 
• Any teacher who wants to provide their students with high quality resources that are designed for student comprehension.
• Students!
