How to Create a Cohesive Biology Curriculum

In this video, I describe some of the strategies and thought process I used to create the Biology Curriculum  here at USBiologyTeaching.Com.

After getting questions like the ones below I decided to create this video to help teachers have some direction when creating their own biology curriculum or biology lesson plans.

Questions about creating biology curriculum that are covered in the video:

How can I keep my biology students engaged?

How should I include  biology assessments?

What biology lesson plan format should I use?

What biology resources should be included?

What all needs to be considered when creating a biology curriculum?

Macromolecules Worksheet

 

In our Full Biology Curriculum, we use a variety of macromolecules worksheets. One of the macromolecule worksheets that help the students organize the information is our macromolecule graphic organizer. Get  the Macromolecule Worksheet here.macromolecule worksheet

In this macromolecule worksheet students identify the elements, monomer, function and complete a sketch of each macromolecule.

After completing this macromolecule worksheet students are always referring back to it. It offers them a way to organize their thoughts and have a quick reference sheet.

My students love practicing the macromolecules using the macromolecule boxing activity. Check out my post about it here!

Here is a video showing the macromolecule boxes.

Students complete a fun macromolecule sidewalk chalk activity. It certainly beats having them create a poster.

Students love this activity. They just follow our macromolecule sidewalk chalk handout and are able to make excellent drawings. You can also grade it quickly and easily with our included rubric!

Macromolecule Activity

A Real “Gallery Walk”

In our Full Biology Curriculum, after students master the macromolecules they examine the stomach contents of a murder victim!
