1 A Correlation of Miller & Levine Biology To the Ohio New Learning Standards for Science, 2011 Biology, High School Science Inquiry and Application Course Content

2 Introduction This document demonstrates how,, meets Ohio s New Learning Standards for Science, 2011, Biology, Grades Science Inquiry and Application references are to the Student and Teacher Edition feature and page levels. Course content references are to the chapter and section levels. Authors Ken Miller and Joe Levine have created a comprehensive on-level program to inspire students to interact with trusted and up-to-date biology content. The authors unique storytelling style engages students in biology, with a greater focus on written and visual analogies. Resources Study Workbook A and Study Workbook B: Reading Foundations offer leveled resources for students of varying abilities. Section Summaries help students prepare for tests. Study Worksheets make students active and engaged readers. Note taking skills development helps students build understanding. Vocabulary Reviews with graphic organizers help students master key terminology. Laboratory Manual A and Laboratory Manual B: Skill Foundations offer leveled activities for students of varying abilities. Teachers can choose to differentiate activities within a classroom or select from various labs to choose one that best fits the whole class profile. Biology.com, the latest in digital instruction technology, provides a pedagogically relevant interface for your biology classroom.

3 COURSE DESCRIPTION Biology is a high school level course, which satisfies the Ohio Core science graduation requirements of Ohio Revised Code Section This section of Ohio law requires a threeunit course with inquiry-based laboratory experience that engages students in asking valid scientific questions and gathering and analyzing information. This course investigates the composition, diversity, complexity and interconnectedness of life on Earth. Fundamental concepts of heredity and evolution provide a framework through inquirybased instruction to explore the living world, the physical environment and the interactions within and between them. Students engage in investigations to understand and explain the behavior of living things in a variety of scenarios that incorporate scientific reasoning, analysis, communication skills and realworld applications. SCIENCE INQUIRY AND APPLICATION During the years of grades 9 through 12, all students must use the following scientific processes with appropriate laboratory safety techniques to construct their knowledge and understanding in all science content areas: Identify questions and concepts that guide scientific investigations; SE/TE: Quick Lab, Observe: p. 72; Quick Lab, Analyze and Conclude: p. 234; Quick Lab, Apply Concepts: p. 283; Problem-based Learning, Ask Questions: p. 447a/b; Quick Lab, Pose Questions: p. 457; Quick Lab, Form a Hypothesis: p. 620; Quick Lab, Observe: p. 698; Quick Lab, Observe: p. 788; Problem-based Learning, Define a Problem: p. 727a/b; Quick Lab, Form a Hypothesis: p. 810 Asking Questions: p
