AP Biology Lab Review
A seventy-two slide PowerPoint that reviews several lab explorations done in an AP Biology course. For each lab there is a description, concepts, and conclusions. Many pictures and graphics make this visually appealing, but it would not...
Curated OER
Protozoans
Learners examine protozoans and their advantages and disadvantages. In this chemistry lesson students explain what a protozoan is then draw and label one.

How Genes Work Lesson Plan
Students define the key terms that are the structure and function of DNA. In this genetics lesson plan students complete a lab activity in which they construct a model DNA structure.
Curated OER
Cell Respiration
In this biology activity, students complete a crossword puzzle with 17 questions about the processes involved in cellular respiration.
Biology Corner
Life is Cellular
For this cells worksheet, students answer questions about the first person to see a cell as well as the evolution of microscopes. They define the parts of a cell and tell the differences between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. There are 20...
