Biology for NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards) Student Workbook

by Richard Allan, Lissa Bainbridge-Smith, Tracey Greenwood, et al.

Biology for NGSS is an entirely new resource, and has been developed in consultation with practising teachers in the USA. It has been specifically written to meet the high school life science requirements (HSLS) of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The three dimensions of the standards are integrated throughout the workbook:The Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCIs) provide the structural framework for the workbook, dividing it into four sections. Each chapter provides activities to specifically address the performance expectations arising from the DCIs.Science and Engineering Practices are supported throughout with activities to develop skills in analyzing and interpreting data, developing and using models, and constructing explanations from evidence. A supporting introductory chapter provides students with additional opportunities to practice the mathematical and inquiry- based skills required at this level.Crosscutting concepts are identified throughout, allowing students to make connections between core ideas in different topics.
