Inquiries in Science® Biology Series - Help your students understand hard-to-grasp science concepts. Using a learning cycle of engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate, each kit features lab activities designed to actively engage students in learning essential science concepts through guided inquiry. Topics addressed by the kits were organized and selected based on data from numerous sources, including the National Research Council's National Science Education Standards, AAAS's Project 2061 Science Benchmarks, NAEP's Science Framework, and state science education standards from across the US.

The Observing Form and Function Kit includes: Lab supplies plus a teacher’s manual with instructions Background information Reproducible student sheets Student questions Extension activities Suggestions for differentiated instruction Kit Refill replenishes all perishable materials; price includes shipping and handling.

Grades 9–12. Develop students’ knowledge of the unity and diversity of life and the connection between form and function in all organisms. First, students learn that different organisms carry out similar functions but do so in various ways and using different structures. They then investigate the structure and function of a variety of living and preserved organisms.

• View physical and physiological similarities and differences in various organisms
• Compare plant and animal growth and development
• Observe how form and function are related in living organisms

Note: Order the Kit Refill with the perishable materials included or with a prepaid coupon to request the perishables later at your convenience. Contact us or return the coupon at least 2 weeks prior to requested delivery date to ensure prompt arrival of materials.
