1shortmomto4 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I tried the search function and it doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone made up a syllabus, assignment plan/list - something to go along with the Biology 101 DVD for high school. I really need something that is user-friendly for a dd that has dyslexia so it needs to be reading-friendly and I'm not worried about the dissection issues. This particular child is going into the education field so we need general exposure - get that bio credit done - but she'll be heading to a cc before a 4 year college. Help!

Brindee Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) It's included with the dvd's you get. It tells what THEY consider to be the requirements to do high school. We love the DVD's and info. However, some of the high school requirements that they gave hours for seemed kind of "rinky-dink" to us. When I was looking last year, I got a pm from someone that gave these ideas to go with the Biology 101 to help make it a "stronger" course. These are some of the things she used with her dd, and that I also got for my dd. We also did the virtual labs. http://rainbowresource.com/product/B...131134-1747005 http://rainbowresource.com/product/E...131134-1747005 http://rainbowresource.com/product/G...131134-1747005 http://rainbowresource.com/product/E...131134-1747005 My daughter is also not interested in dissection, so I located some virtual options. Here are some sites I found: http://shs.westport.k12.ct.us/mjvl/b...t/crayfish.htm http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/genbio/vi..._14/BL_14.html http://library.thinkquest.org/05aug/...ctionGame.html http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/genbio/vi..._16/BL_16.html Before dd started, I went through the TOC of the books and looked through the plans from Bio. 101 and penciled in the extra readings to go with what she was studying at the time. It's worked out very well, and I feel like it's a strong course for her! Edited April 22, 2011 by Brindee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katiebug_1976 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=157884 Try this link (last time I posted a link, it didn't work properly, so I apologize in advance if it doesn't work). Post #33 (on page 4, I believe) of this thread has a list of other resources that were used with the Biology 101 dvd's. I think, if I've heard right, the manual that comes with the dvd's includes lesson plans for making them a complete biology program. I think this is what I will be using with both of my older dd's next year. It looks like a great program! Hey, Brindee beat me to it! I guess we posted back at the same time. I was hoping you would reply since your dd is using this program right now. Edited April 22, 2011 by Katiebug_1976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1shortmomto4 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 I knew I had seen something! Thanks so much! I had saved the links for the sites for the virtual stuff but not the book list. That helps immensely and much more bio-friendly for my dd. Again, thank you thank you thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
