We encourage you to subscribe to our listserv to receive notices when we post new activities or significantly improved versions of current activities. To accommodate limited budgets, most of our activities can be carried out with minimum equipment and expense for supplies.Īdditional resources for teaching biology are available at Minds-on Activities for Teaching Biology. Additional information is provided in Summary Tables and in the Teacher Preparation Notes for these activities. Most of our activities support the Next Generation Science Standards, as indicated by (NGSS) in the descriptions below and the links to the right. The expression " hands-on, minds-on" summarizes the philosophy we have incorporated in these activities - namely, that students will learn best if they are actively engaged and if their activities are closely linked to understanding important biological concepts.
