Unit Study
A thematic or topical approach centered around one topic that integrates multiple subject areas.
Montessori (Discovery)
A methodology based on the work of a 20th century educator that emphasizes student and sensory-driven discovery learning and real-life applications.

Description
Publisher's Description of Novare Advanced Biology Program
Novare Science's Advanced Biology program pairs a classical,
Christian approach to cutting-edge science with an advanced biology
syllabus designed for students who have already completed chemistry.
Full program includes:
This comprehensive curriculum emphasizes biochemistry and covers all
of the AP Biology syllabus, including detailed analysis of the reactions
in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the Calvin cycle, as well as
sections on signal transduction.
Consisting of documents only, Digital Resources include
recommendations for teaching, quizzes, weekly review guides, semester
exams, answer keys, sample answers to verbal questions, a lesson
schedule, and a sample lesson calendar. The weekly, cumulative
assessments are the central component of Novare’s mastery-learning
strategy, as they require students to remember key concepts from
previous chapters while learning material from new chapters.
The Apprentice’s Companion is a valuable new combination of an
experiment book, field manual, lab journal, sketchbook, and commonplace
book. Enhanced with images of art, poems, and quotes by respected
scientists and naturalists, the book prompts students to form
hypotheses, take data, and revisit those hypotheses to assess, wherever
possible, if they are supported by the data.
*Your purchase of The Apprentice's Companion for Advanced Biology includes Teacher Notes, a materials list, and activity documents. These digital PDF files will be accessible in your MyLibrary account.
Category Description for Novare Advanced Biology
Written to meet the needs of advanced students, Novare Advanced Biology covers all topics found in the AP Biology syllabus. Biochemistry is emphasized in this course and successful completion of Chemistry and Algebra 1 is a prerequisite. Familiarity with Algebra 2 is also suggested.
The goal of this course is to equip
students to use their minds for the glory of God, and with this goal in mind,
evolutionary theory is taught with the scientific evidence presented neutrally.
Students will become well-versed in the theory, while understanding God as the
Creator of all things. Topically, students will study life, the chemistry of
life, cells and cell theory, energy in chemical reactions, cellular
respiration, and photosynthesis, cell signaling and the cell cycle, genetics,
gene expression and regulation, ecology and conservation, microevolution,
population genetics, and evolutionary theory and macroevolution. This is an
advanced course written for 11th grade accelerated students. With the focus on
introductory biochemistry, other topics typically covered in Biology are not
taught, including plants, animals, and human anatomy. All topics of the AP
Biology syllabus are covered, with additional content on scientific
epistemology, history, and creation.
Required for the course are the Textbook, Apprentice Companion, and the Digital Resources. The Student Lab Report Handbook is recommended.
