BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS OF BOOKS
 
1. The Living Environment- Biology Lessons. (5th Edition)
(Laminated covers, comb binding: $29.95 each

This is a unique teacher-made book. It is especially
good for hard to reach students, but has separate
advanced sections for your regular groups. Research
shows that connecting new information to previous
information that students are familiar with is essential
for good learning. Each lesson in this book begins
with an analogy or metaphor to give your students an understandable model that they can use as a link
to the new biology concepts being taught.

 The Main Ideas, Essential Questions, Objectives, and 
Performance Indicators are life savers if you are doing 
curriculum mapping or need to write comprehensive lesson plans 
for your administrator. This book is great for any teacher with
 a busy schedule and looking for something different to use in
 the classroom. This is my #1 seller.

2. The Living Environment- L.E.A.F. Study Guides
(Living Environment Abbreviated Facts)
(Class of 10 = $69.95; Class of 5 = $39.95)

Great for starting the beginning of each unit with the
"Big Picture"
(whole to parts approach).
These guides are also useful for:

1. review at the end of each unit,

2. helping absent students catch-up, or preparing for the
final exam.

Each student package consists of seven, double sided L.E.A.F.
Study Guides (14 pages total).
For each unit, all the "major understandings" are condensed on
one side of each page for quick and easy reading (Scientific Inquiry
and Ecology use two sides). The diagrams below do not do justice
to the appearance of these study guides. The pages are beautifully
 colored prints, laminated for year-long protection, and are printed
double sided. Each page is 3-hole punched for convenient storage
 in the student's notebook. These pages are similar to the stiff,
quick review college study sheets sold in major bookstores.
 
In many cases, the language used in the "Major Understandings" 
have been simplified for easier understanding. These pages are
great for students that have a tough time preparing for exams.
Each sheet contains the basic information required to understand
each unit. Once the students have mastered these sheets, they
will then be ready to move on to any additional information
desired by the teacher.

An order for a class of 10 includes seven, double sided pages
per student for a total of 70 double sides pages (140 total pages).
This top quality product is one that your students are sure to
use and appreciate.

These pages are laminated and printed on both sides (total of 14 pages/student)
 

Each page is 3-hole punched and divided into sections. Each section represents a
"Major Understanding" that is written in easy to understand language and accompanied by colorful diagrams representing the meaning of the "Major Understanding."

3. BIO-SEQUENCE CARDS
1 set = $16.95 (ex. 1 topic);  2 or more sets (ex. 2 differet topics or 2 of same topic, etc.) =  $14.95 for each set

Capture your student's attention with these
manipulatives.
These cards will force students to read, analyze, sequence, and
comprehend the concept being reviewed. This active learning
process is perfect for cooperative group activities.

Bio-Sequence Cards offers you 20 topics to choose from
(listed below).
Each pack of cards will contain 6 different colored, laminated picture
cards for the particular topic purchased.  Each pack of cards comes in
a zip lock pouch. The pictures represent different steps in a process
that the students must learn. After you review the basic process in
class, the students will be given the cards and asked to arrange the
cards on their desk to show the proper sequences of steps in the
process being studied (ex. steps of natural selection, mitosis, etc.).
A simple walk around the room will let you immediately see
misconceptions and point out any cards that are not sequenced
correctly (for students to think about again). Eventually, they will
get it correct. You will see them debating with each other as they
decide the proper sequence. The cards are also an excellent way to
review each unit.

The great thing about the cards is that they are laminated to allow
you to pick them up at the end of one class and use them over
again in the next class. One master set is all you need for each topic.
In addition, each set comes with reproducible student worksheet
that will allow the students to record what they did and answer
questions that will further solidify their understanding.
A teacher guide is also provided.

One set will be enough for 12 individual students for 1 topic (or 24
students if teams of 2 students are used). One set includes 12 packs
of cards with 6 cards on a topic in each pack. A Teacher Guide and
master Student Worksheet will be included.



The 2015 card sets presently available are:
1. The Scientific Method
2. Life's Levels of Organization
3. Diffusion
4. DNA Synthesis

11. BIO-BAGGIE ACTIVITIES
(1 package containing 5 baggie activities on same topic = $34.95)

The Bio-Baggie Activities are self-contained, hands-on, manipulative-based lessons.
The activities involve mini-simulation labs, model building, and games that simulate and/or demonstrate biology structures
and/or processes such as diffusion, evolution, DNA replication, etc. Each activity comes in a zip lock baggie that contains all
the equipment needed for a team of two students. Also included in the baggie are laminated instructions and a re-usable,
laminated data page* with a water soluble flow pen*. A separate master conclusion page, additional master data page,
and teacher answer key/guide are provided.

These activities are meant to be used as short, hands-on, introductions to major concepts. Most of the activities should take
only 15-25 minutes to complete. The activities are re-usable as you proceed from one class to the next. Just have the
students return everything to the baggie and they are ready for the next class. These are great time savers. They are also
perfect for students that have missed class. All you need to do is hand them a baggie and they are ready to go. One package
contains 5 baggie activities/topic that can be used for 5 pairs of students (10 students).

Three baggie topics are presently available. More activities will be available in the future. Descriptions of the activities
presently available include:
*(only mini-simulation labs come with a Data page and flow pen)

1. DIFFUSION. Students will simulate kinetic energy, random motion, membrane selectivity, different molecular
concentrations, and demonstrate how these processes relate to diffusion (see photo below).
Ex. Diffusion Baggie package contains 5 labs like the one shown above
(plus separate master conclusion page, additional master data page, and teacher answer key/guide)
 
2. DNA, GENES, CHROMATIN, AND CHROMOSOMES. Students will create "histone-DNA" models to demonstrate the
relationship between DNA, genes, chromatin, and chromosomes. Students will also demonstrate the histone difference
between active chromatin (with genes "on") and non-active chromatin (with genes "off") . Finally, this activity is a great
way to show how and why chromatin condenses back and forth between chromosomes and "loose" chromatin strands in
the nucelus.
 

3. CELL MODEL. Each student team will create a cell, using plastic organelles, based on a chart that describes what each
organelle looks like. The team will then place the organelle over a specified (numbered) location on a laminated outline of a
cell. Teachers can roam the room to see if each student team was successful. A question page is included that will require
the student to read a description of how cystic fibrosis results from problems at the cellular level. Based on what they read,
the team will then assign a function to each organelle that is part of the model.
                 
Ex. The Cell Model Baggie package contains 10 hard plastic organelles (very tough and about the thicknes of a quarter) like
those shown above. The plastic parts include the mitochondria, lysosome, vacuole, free ribosomes, nucleus (with nucleolus),
golgi apparatus, cell membrane, centrioles, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
The yellow cell body (approximately 6"x7") is laminated.

12. BIO-LOGIC CARD KITS

TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK -

The Bio-Logic Card Kit activities are a hands-on,
 learning technique based on new neurological research.
-
-
RECALL AND  MEMORY ARE DIFFERENT
(courtesy NIH)
-
Sometimes even great lessons do not always produce the desirable exam outcomes we anticipated. Very often students demonstrate that they understand what you have just taught in class.  They answer your oral questions, perform well on a class activity, and even do well on a quiz at the end of the period.  Unfortunately, days later when your done with the lesson, they seemed to have forgotten much of what they apperared to have learned. This happens despite homework, class worksheets, graphic organizers, and all your best efforts. What many teachers may not realize is that the students probably do have this material in their memory (and it may be there for the rest of their lives). The problem they have is not their memory, but rather recalling information from their memory. These research based kits address this issue by showing how to use "deliberate distractions" and a 3 stage learning process as a way to improve the recall of information.
-
The kits are based on the research of R. Douglas Fields (1) as applied to a modified version of the Spaced Learning technique described by Paul Kelley and Terry Whatson (2).  The kit's approach starts with a PowerPoint lesson, then uses two more  lessons that requires students to arrange Bio-Logic question cards and picture cards to learn basic concepts. Interspaced between these lessons are strategic "deliberate distractions" that provide time for the brain to process what was taught and begin the long term storage process (consolidation) needed for effective recall.  This includes forming new neural pathways and changes at nerve synapses.  The kits are meant to serve as a solid scaffold on which to build your regular lessons. The Bio-Logic Cards are the size of busines cards (2"x 3.5"). Card colors may be substituted for other colors based on paper availability.

In research by Paul Kelly and Terry Whatson, data showed that Spaced Learning could accomplish as much in one hour as can be accomplish in four months using standard teaching. (2)

Front. Hum. Neurosci. 7:589. doi: 10.3389/fnhum.2013.00589
 
In addition to the use of Spaced Learning, information will be provided on how to use Retrieval Practice to further help improve both short term and long term recall of learned material.

Two kits are presently available
          
CELLULAR ORGANIZATION : The 8 concepts studied include cell levels of organization,
human systems and 1-celled organism "systems", homeostasis, cell grouping and interaction,
cell parts, cell membrane functions, digestion and diffusion, receptor molecules

GENETICS : The 8 concepts studied include genes, DNA, protein synthesis, ....
                   mutations, gene regulation, gene-environmental interactions, 
asexual vs. sexual inheritance, and differentiation


Coming Soon: Scientific Inquiry and Evolution

EACH KIT CONTAINS 6 STUDENT SUPPLY BAGS AND 1 TEACHER SUPPLY BAG.
(To achieve expected results, I do not recommend that students work in teams unless
they are equally involved and highly motivated)

A. Each Student Supply Bag contains the following:
(Everything in the Student Supply Bag is re-usable for the next class.)

1. Bio-Logic Card Kit Instruction Page.
2. Eight (8) small, numbered baggies (1 for each concept listed above).
Each baggie contains 8 manipulative cards for one concept (ex. genes). Four of these eight Bio-Logic Cards involve sequencing a question and its answer (see pink sample below) and four involve sequencing pictures that represent
the concept (see blue sample below). There is a total of 64 Bio-Logic Cards/student. Total cards/6 students = 384
cards. The Bio-Logic Cards are laminated to allow repeated use.      

B. The Teacher Supply Bag contains the following
1. Teacher Guide  (16 pages, including Masters)
2. 18-20 slide PowerPoint
    Introduces the topic (includes answer keys). Requires PowerPoint on your computer
    or downloaded free viewer from internet.

*Schools are responsible for supplying card stock paper (2 sheets/student) for flash cards (not for Bio-Logic Cards) and an envelope (1/student) to store the flash cards. Flash cards will be used for a retrieval practice routine also described in the kit.

Orders made within N. Y. State must include tax since my business is located in N.Y. State (no tax on orders made outside of N.Y.S.).
The sales tax is applied to items purchased (it is applied to S/H only if Priority shipping is selected instead of free Economy shipping). For example,
let's assume your county's sales tax is 8% and you purchase a $30 item. Assuming you had an 8% tax,
then 8% x $30 = $2.40 tax. Total = $30 + $2.40 = $32.40 total.

I send all orders Delivery Confirmation (no extra charge). Please fill-in the shipping information carefully (ex. address, items, etc.).
 I will replaced damaged or defective items within 15 days of the post mark on the original package (please E-mail for more
information before returning item).  Buyer must pay return postage for original item. I will pay postage for return of replacement item.
A Priority/First Class Mail option is available for an additional $5.00 the first item and $1 for each aditional item. For instance, if two $30 books
were purchased, then the price would be calculated as follows: $60 ($30x2) + $6 ($5+$1; Priority/First class) + $5.28 (if 8% tax) = $71.28 total.
 
 I make every effort to ship your merchandise as soon as possible (usually 1-3 business days). You may request an estimate prior to
making your order. After an order is made, I E-mail the customer with an estimate of when I expect to ship their merchandise.
