Long Term Projects
Course Outline & NGSS Alignment
Parents and students, as we move away from traditional textbooks, we need to think less about the recall of content knowledge of Life Science topics, and more about processes, critical thinking, problem solving and engineering. The Next Generation Science Standards help us move in that direction. The files below briefly out how this will be covered in both Biology and Honors Biology at EGHS.
