The Biology for the Logic Stage Teacher Guide is a manual that provides 36 weeks of instruction (6 units) covering topics such as ecology, plants, invertebrates, vertebrates, animals, and the human body. It is designed to help middle school teachers explore biological topics with their students using a classical science education methodology. The manual contains hands-on inquiry, information writing, and a science project to engage students.
This teacher's guide includes weekly student assignments for experiments, sketching, vocabulary, memory work, and writing, with pre-labeled sketches and teacher-led discussion questions. Also included are unit tests and a year-end test (with answer keys) along with information for each experiment, including explanations of the expected results.
