Biology for NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards) Student Workbook

REVERE Award-Winning <i>Biology for NGSS</i> is an entirely new supplemental resource. It has been specifically written to support the high school life science requirements of the <b>Next Generation Science Standards</b> (NGSS). The three dimensions of the standards are integrated throughout the workbook: <BR> The <b>Disciplinary Core Ideas</b> (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. <BR> <b>Science and Engineering Practices</b> 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. <P> <b>Crosscutting concepts</b> are identified throughout, allowing students to make connections between core ideas in different topics.
