Biology Inclusion Class Set Includes 3 Student Texts, 1 Student Workbook, Teachers Edition, and Teachers Resource Library (Ags Biology) I use storyboarding to teach the processes of protein synthesis, photosynthesis, and cellular respiration. I introduce my students to the concept of storyboarding by showing them this American Film Institute video, which can be found on these two web sites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWPjjoOFIu8 or http://www.afi.com/education/screened/demo/screened_tables_student.aspx However, the above links have now become unavailable. I'm leaving them in there for reference. But I found another website that has the video!!! https://app.schooltube.com/video/d2525f42fd3809f3dabd/Storyboarding%20(AFI's%20Lights,%20Camera,%20Education!) I did find a website with a video about storyboarding on this website, even though it is not nearly as good as the original, I does give students ideas about drawing out stories as pictures or cartoons. http://uwsslec.libguides.com/c.php?g=187016&p=1236350 Here is the hand out for Cellular Respiration (see example key at the bottom of this post): or you can print the handouts from these links: Storyboard - Cellular Respiration https://drive.google.com/file/d/10U7eUy4mG0lks8xLSMJXtyVnXqDJ4Nx5/view?usp=sharing Storyboard - Cellular Respiration Directions https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-0MZSiWWuaVwTZOn9CgJGdcx3Kz9rgsH/view?usp=sharing Storyboard - Cellular Respiration Example/Answer Key https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KTSJEs8xVPzZDIx-t-p6pQlMV4NB1dAc/view?usp=sharing A cellular respiration workout activity can be found on this blog and may be used for both introducing and reviewing the main topics of cellular respiration. https://cavalierscience.blogspot.com/2020/01/cellular-respiration-activity.html Storyboard - Cellular Respiration Name _____________________________________________ INSTRUCTIONS FOR STORYBOARDING ACTIVITY – CELLULAR RESPIRATION 1.

I've been meaning to put this together all year, but life has just been too busy to get it all together. Even though it's my third year teaching the new AP Biology curriculum, I've come to realize that I will never finish tweaking this course, and so will never just breeze through a year of teaching it. On the bright side, I do feel like each year I teach it a little better! Here are my links to guided reading questions and corresponding videos to supplement the reading in AP Biology. All of these links are in old blog posts, but I thought I might be easier to have all of the links in one post. Here is a link to a document that has all of these units in table form, which I like better. It just doesn't copy and paste well into blogger. Right now the chapter numbers correspond to the Campbell Biology 8th Ed., but next year we are switching to the 2nd Edition of Biology in Focus, so next year, I'll be changing the chapter numbers. I may change the questions some, but they should already match fairly well with Biology in Focus since I had chosen them based on what I saw in the Holtzclaw Test Prep review book for Campbell Biology and Biology in Focus. I love that Test Prep review book by the way!

This Review PowerPoint and Google Slides for Advanced Placement AP Biology covers Metabolism, Enzymes, and the Chemical Reaction of Cells. Topics include endergonic and exergonic reactions, energy transfer of ADP and ATP, the structure and functioning of enzymes, activation energy, and more. (Detailed list of topics below.) Why You Need This Resource: None of the questions on the AP Biology exam are going to be simple “fact” questions. Both the Multiple Choice and Free Response (Essay) Questions are going to involve analysis, interpretation, predicting, critical analysis, and evaluation type questions. Students must have a solid base of factual knowledge to draw from as they use their critical thinking skills on AP Exam questions. These test prep questions will help your students build their knowledge base. Reviewing for the AP Biology Exam got you down? These no prep review questions are perfect for students to use individually at home, or in group settings in the classroom. Students love using the questions in a competitive game format. Help your students get ready for the exam! The amount of material that is covered on the AP Biology exam is often overwhelming to our students. The key to success is review, review, REVIEW! Several months before the exam, I use these Question and Answer PowerPoints to get my students reviewing for the exam in May. Each slide in this review PowerPoint consists of one question followed by the answer. As the exam approaches, I spend 10 to 15 minutes each class period reviewing these questions. Keeping previously taught material fresh in the mind of the student is key to scoring well on the AP exam. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY! I offer one of my AP Biology Review PowerPoints as a free download. It covers the topic of Organic Compounds and Biochemistry. This will give you a good idea of what my review PowerPoints are like. Click this link to download the free PowerPoint on Organic Compounds. Why I LOVE ❤️ this resource: Perfect way to get students studying for the AP Biology Exam. Requires no advanced prep work. Saves your time! The work is already done for you. EDITABLE! PRINTABLE! DIGITAL! Can be used as a classroom review game. Can be shared with students so they can review at home. Multiple Formats: PowerPoint, Google Slides with answers, or Google Slides with text boxes. This is not a teaching PowerPoint. This PowerPoint would not be suitable for teaching the material for the first time. Each Review PowerPoint slide consists of one question followed by the answer. I have included several EDITABLE formats depending on how you would like to use this resource with your students. PowerPoint Presentation: When the PowerPoint presentation is played the student will see only the question. With the next click, the answer appears on the same slide. Click again to get the next question slide. Google Slides Presentation: When the Google Slides presentation is played the student will see only the question. With the next click, the answer appears on the same slide. Click again to get the next question slide. Google Slides With Included Text Boxes: In this version, text boxes have been placed on each slide. Students will read the question, then type their answer in the text box. Answers are not shown to students in this version. You can use this version as a graded assignment. Each of the above versions is editable. You can delete unwanted questions and/or add additional questions of your own. Please note the following: The questions cover the biology content that AP students need to know. Students must master the content in order to apply what they know to the problem-solving and critical-thinking AP multiple choice questions. The questions are not optimized for specific types of multiple choice questions that might appear on the new version AP exam. No multiple-choice questions are included. Each slide has one question followed by the answer. The review PowerPoint does not contain any essay questions or teaching tips for writing the essay questions. No materials from the College Board or old AP exams are included. The following topics and concepts are covered: Metabolism: Catabolic and anabolic pathways First Law of Thermodynamics: Exergonic and endergonic reactions Free energy of reactants and products Energy Transfer: Structure and function of ADP and ATP, mechanism by which ATP releases energy and ADP stores energy Enzymes: Function of enzymes, energy of activation, transition state, active site, lock and key, denaturation.

Hang Tight! The infographic takes a moment to load.
This is my adaptation of an activity I heard about, but didn't take notes for, and then tried to re-create. I used pool noodles as a model for active sites, competitive inhibition and non-competitive inhibition. I use blue as the substrate, brown as a competitive inhibitor and orange as a non-competitive inhibitor. We talk about active sites, allosteric sites and induced fit model. We also talk about the limitations of this model. It doesn't actually show a reaction taking place in the active site, you can manipulate the enzyme to let the blue and brown fit at the same time, or one of them fit while the orange piece is in the allosteric site ... it is not perfect, but most models are not perfect.
This is a review game that I created about 20 years ago and it has stood the test of time in my AP Biology classes. It promotes mastery of content and allows students to work at their own pace. My AP scores increased significantly once I implemented this game before each Midterm Exam. Student groups of four work great with this activity and an adequate amount of time to spend playing Greed is approximately 45 minutes. What is great about this game is that students get through a ton of review questions in a short period of time. In addition, they are asking each other questions out loud which means they are pronouncing vocabulary terms (very important to solidify higher level concepts). They are also coaching and explaining concepts to one another throughout the game which means that all students are learning throughout the entire activity. This kit comes with approximately 150 question cards with answers. Instructions are also included. There are Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 questions. The questions get harder with each level. As students move through the levels they must decide if they will stay at a certain level and keep their points or wager their points by moving to the next level. These questions can be easily modified to fit your curriculum exactly or you can simply use the questions that are included. The following topics are included in this kit: 1. Cell Structure and Function (Cell Theory, Organelles, Endomembranal System, Prokaryote vs. Eukaryote Cells, Plant vs. Animal Cells) 2. Structure of the Plasma Membrane3. Cell Transport (Active and Passive Transport, Water Potential, Hypertonic, Hypotonic, Isotonic.....)4. Photosynthesis (Light vs. Dark Reaction, CAM Photosynthesis, C4 Photosynthesis)5. Cellular Respiration (Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, Oxidative Phosphorylation, Fermentation) This game is structured enough that student groups are completely self-sufficient meaning they won’t need a lot (if any) input/interaction from the teacher so you will be free to get grading or other tasks done during class time! The best thing about Greed…….it is original. Because students haven’t played it a million times, they will find it engaging, challenging, competitive, and fun. My students absolutely love Greed!!

We all have our favorite labs, and this enzyme lab is one of my very favorites. I love this lab because my students come away with a much better understanding of how enzymes do their important jobs within cells. Students love this lab because ... well just look at the picture to the left. What concepts are covered/reinforced? 1. Enzymes speed up the rate of biological chemical reactions. 2. The same enzymes are found in both plant and animal cells. 3. Enzymes are highly specific for the reaction they catalyze. 4. Enzymes carry out their functions more efficiently than catalysts. 5. Enzymes can be denatured by excessive heat. Introduction: Catalase is an enzyme that is commonly found in plant and animal tissues. The function of the enzyme catalase is to break down the chemical hydrogen peroxide inside living cells. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a highly active chemical, often used for bleaching. Within cells, hydrogen peroxide is thought to be formed continually as an end product of biochemical reactions such as cellular respiration. Because it is toxic, or poisonous, it would soon kill the cell if it were not removed or broken down immediately. Therefore, the catalase found in living cells protects the cell by breaking down or digesting this poisonous hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Manganese dioxide is a catalyst. Catalysts are similar to enzymes in that they speed up chemical reactions, but they are not specific for just one reaction. Materials needed: Fresh plant and animal tissue (Potato and Liver) Boiled animal tissue (Liver) 3% hydrogen peroxide Manganese dioxide Test tubes and test tube rack Sand Mortar and pestle Catalase is an enzyme that is found in all eukaryotic cells. This lab will work using any fresh and living tissue. I always use liver as a source of animal cells that contain catalase, and potatoes as a source of plant cells that contain catalase. I purchase the liver frozen at the grocery store. When thawed, it works perfect! Often I will also use a yeast solution to show that fungal cells contain the same enzyme. What reaction will students see as catalase breaks down the hydrogen peroxide? As you can imagine, students absolutely love this lab!! Click the link below to download this free lab. Enjoy!

We used these spud genes (from Applie) to see what alleles the parents of the Baby Spudoodle would have. (There are enough for six students.) They drew alleles from different cups to see the traits of each parent. I printed two sets of alleles - one set for the mother on white paper, and one set for the father on some gray paper I had on hand. I placed the alleles on corresponding labeled cups. For instance, all the N's and n's (both gray and white) went in the "Nose" cup, and I had the kids draw two of each color from each cup. They wrote these genotypes on the tops and sides of the Punnett squares for each (nose, mouth, etc.) of the mother's and father's genotypes, then completed the squares. The completed squares showed which genotypes the Baby Spudoodles were likely to have, but since we don't know exactly which trait any given spudoodle will get from its parents, the kids rolled dice to get numbers 1-4 (5's and 6's had to be rolled again). Counting from left to right, they circled the genotype their Baby Spudoodle got for that particular trait. They did this for each square. (nose, eyes, hair, tail, etc.) On their worksheet, they listed the genotypes (such as Nn, or EE) and the phenotypes (such as 2 nostrils or 1 nostril, or large eyes or small eyes). Hee hee, the genotype Bb was one large eye and one small eye! They did their Build-a-Spud Workshop using the characteristics according to the chart, and weren't allowed any changes. Click for my tweaked directions, and thanks for Mr. McClung for the idea and original directions. Scroll down and see the slideshow of his student's spudoodles. =) See Michelle's, and Julie's student's spudoodles. I love the peanut marshmallow ears! We had cap erasers, but all my students ended up with cotton ball ears! Cotton balls apparently are dominant. ;) I had also meant to buy candy orange slices... would've been tastier. (Kids tend to eat any extra goodies!) The kids did the other experiments at home, most of which were something on paper. In Experiment 8.1, Making an Earlobe Pedigree, we discovered that my immediate family all have attached earlobes, while my husband's immediate family all have unattached earlobes. Our kids all have unattached earlobes as well. One other student's family was the exact same as ours. We determined that unattached must be dominant. We didn't get to do Experiment 8.4, about the radish leaves. We don't meet every week, and I had the radish seeds at my house. But due to snow and other unforeseen factors, we were unable to meet and get the seeds to them in time, so we skipped it. It was a very interesting module, seeing all the different possibilities for just one genotype. Just think of all the possibilities -- not only hair and eye color, but shade of skin, freckles, shape of mouth, nose, chin, face, ears, teeth, smile, as well as placement, width of face, eyebrows, eyelashes -- and that's just in one small area! Think of the almost infinite number of combinations of alleles for the wonderful variety of mankind, made in God's image. He sure knows what He's doing! =D

I have taught Anatomy & Physiology both in classroom settings and virtually through homeschool courses, which is why all of my dissection labs include video demonstrations as well as in-class instructions. Although this course was not designed specifically for individual homeschool use, the materials and resources included can be easily found at home and/or completed in a virtual or homeschool setting. If you’re looking for a homeschool Anatomy course for one student, please check out my website. ➤How does this course prepare my students to succeed in higher education? The editable Cornell notes used in this course are a great tool for students to use in college and beyond. Guided notes with blanks are included as students learn note-taking skills. Because the notes are editable, scaffolded sections of the Cornell notes can be removed as student skills progress, providing a more challenging and realistic note-taking experience. Extension pages included in this course provide an increased depth of knowledge and opportunities for scientific literacy, reading comprehension, critical thinking, data analysis, and math calculations. These skills are crucial for success in standardized tests like the SAT & ACT as well as in future science and medical courses. I use Greek and Latin prefixes, suffixes, and roots in context. A list of these terms is included in each unit and I encourage my students to practice these regularly. Familiarity with these terms allows students to understand and memorize new terms more easily and allows them to be more scientifically literate citizens. To add additional rigor to the course for students interested in the medical field, try adding my Anatomy Case Studies (not included) to each unit. ➤What textbook can I use with this course? All units in this course are comprehensive enough to stand on their own without a textbook. Should you choose to use one, though, you can simply match the body system in your book with the one in my course. Most textbooks have the body systems in the same order as this course, meaning nearly any book would fit. This course follows the topics and level of detail in Pearson’s Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology quite well, which many A&P teachers use. For other textbook suggestions, simply send me an email at [email protected]. ➤Can I edit these resources to fit my needs? Some of the files in this course are editable. The text on the PowerPoints, Cornell Notes, and task cards is all editable so you can adjust the level of content and wording. The pacing guide, printable unit tests, and online quizzes through Google Forms™ are all fully editable. Labs, activities, extension pages, and any images included in this unit are in non-editable PDF formats to protect my intellectual property rights and those of the illustrators whose images I’ve purchased for use in this resource. ➤Only need a few components of this course? Many resources included in this course are also available separately: -A&P PowerPoints -A&P Cornell Notes -A&P Doodle Notes -A&P Extensions -A&P Lab Bundle -Advanced Body System Diagrams ➤Want more supplements for distance learning?
