  1. Can we do a real high school level #genetics lab using only #LEGOs? Well, yes we can! Here is the info & lab. Honors students loved it, and this was originally designed from the ground up for our #SPED students.

  5. I'm a believer in reversing the traditional vector of IEPs, scaffolding & differentiation - by that I mean, once one makes any IEP adaptations, then why not then fold those adaptations back into the general class, whenever possible?
    Much of what I originally made for students with IEPs became sought after by all my other students, and then students of other teachers, from the Honors science classes (and now from other schools.)

  7. In developing #AIs (#artificialintelligences) there’s no guarantee that they will think like we do. We need to ask:
    What type of minds do we humans have? And what possible type of minds could AIs have? This free resource explains these ideas from the ground up

  9. What are the sources of energy for life on Earth? All life depends on the sun, right? Mostly.... yet life is wildly creative! There's also

    #Chemosynthesis - Some cells use energy derived from reactions involving inorganic chemicals.

    And also #radiolysis?! Nuclear power as a source of life!?

  14. Where do eukaryotes come from?
    #Endosymbiotic theory is an evolutionary theory which explains the origin of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotes

    * Key organelles of eukaryotes originated as symbiosis between separate single-celled organisms.

    * According to this theory, mitochondria and chloroplasts are descendants of formerly free-living bacteria.

  16. Biology teachers can have fun with this! In this lesson students view scenes from the Tremors series of movies. Students take notes on Graboid biology: external anatomy, internal anatomy, lifecycle and behavior.

  18. Where does every element in your body – and our world – come from? Wrap your mind around this: we now actually know the answer to that question! Here is how dying stars create all elements!!
