Get ready to love science vocabulary with this fun Life Science Doodle Note Workbook! Covering all the essential concepts for middle school life science, this doodle workbook goes through the key ideas for each science learning standard. Each chapter and page aligns closely with a particular standard. Engaging and concise response tasks get students drawing and writing about their life science learning, while encouraging cross-lateral brain activity.
Standards-Based Chapter Topics
- Each chapter focuses on a Life Science Learning Standard and an essential question. Chapter 1 “How do cells contribute to the function of living organisms?”
- The pages in each chapter chunk the key ideas into digestible bites that middle school students can complete independently or with limited support.
- Definitions for vocabulary are provided, emphasizing understanding through APPLICATION of vocabulary to a task (not just writing definitions).
Each Page Focuses on a Specific NGSS!
Homeschool parents often question whether they are giving their kids a content-rich experience that includes all the life science topics in the national science standards. This book takes the guesswork out of that process. Each page lists a standard in the top right hand corner for teacher/parent reference!
