Description
This completely digital product includes a PowerPoint presentation, accompanying illustrated student guided notes, and a review worksheet, and will provide students with a thorough introduction to the characteristics that distinguish living things from non-living things and the life processes! This product is available as both a digital and a print version, and the 24-slide PowerPoint includes the following topics (in this order):
1. Characteristics of Living Things: Highly Organized, Use Energy, Definite Shape/Size, Limited Life Span, Grow, Respond to Change, Reproduce, Composed of Cells
2. Life Processes: Nutrition, Transport, Respiration, Synthesis and Assimilation, Growth, Excretion, Regulation, Reproduction
3. Metabolism and Homeostasis
4. Vocabulary Summary: Acrostic (Mr. H. Stranger)
These notes are highly interactive! Students will fill in the blanks and answer questions as the content is presented. Helpful images and diagrams from the PowerPoint are also embedded within the guided notes to assist student understanding. Included in the PowerPoint are also links to several YouTube videos I have found helpful in teaching this material, which are of course optional! The level of detail is appropriate for a middle school biology or high school general biology course, but perhaps not sophisticated enough for an Advanced Placement course.
The review worksheet pairs directly with the PowerPoint, and can be used as a homework assignment, or even a quiz!
DISTANCE LEARNING:
This product is completely digital and can be easily emailed to students or posted to an online classroom page. As the notes are a Word document, students can type directly on the document if they are unable to print. If using Google Classroom, you are provided with a link to a Google Docs version of both the guided notes AND the review worksheet, and the PowerPoint can be opened easily with Google Slides.
