As your teacher this year, I will do my best to challenge you, guide you, and support your efforts as we work together toward successful learning. By taking this class, you have chosen the high road which may include some tough climbs and hard work -- but the payoff could be great if you apply yourself and accept all challenges with an eager mind.
Honors Biology covers topics typically covered in a high school biology course and prepares students for Advanced Placement Biology. Students study the structures, functions, and processes of living organisms and their interactions with the environment. Major themes include cell structure and specialization, energy and chemistry of life, genetics and evolution, diversity of life, plant systems, and ecology. Students learn complex biological concepts through interactive web-based lectures and applications, and knowledge is assessed through quizzes, tests, labs and projects.
