Extra-credit & Enrichment: These activities are available throughout the semester:

Introduction

We have an exciting year planned studying two different units. This fall we will be starting with Organisms - Macro to Micro and second semester we will be studying Human Body Systems . These two units are very interactive with a lot of hands-on labs. Students will be working individually as well as in groups.

At the end of each unit, we will have an anchor activity which involves research and a class presentation.

The text we are using is a collaborative effort between The Smithsonian and Carolina Biological. These texts will be kept in the classroom due to the small number that we have. However, several spiral-backed textbooks are available for students to check out for overnight use.
