Dani Daw –
I am interested in purchasing this curriculum. This is my first time teaching Zoology (as a 7th grade science elective, and I am a math teacher who has only ever taught math), so I would love to know if there are answer keys included for everything? Thanks!
Eva Varga –
Yes, answer keys are available. Though much of the work is open-ended.

Check your email! 🙂

Is this a good resource for High School? I teach at an alternative school.
Eva Varga –
The lessons are designed for upper elementary / middle school. I feel the lessons may be too easy for high school students.

Wow, this is fantastic. Just what I was looking for. Thank you!

Hello! I am teaching a hybrid homeschool group, and have some questions. Is the 10 week unit meant for 5 days per week, or less? Are the “inquiry based activities” activities hands on activities for the kids, or more research based? Thanks so much!
Eva Varga –
The 10 weeks is based on a hands-on activity (provided) twice a week with suggested readings and supplemental work to extend the lesson each week. The majority of the hands-on activities are lab-based, inquiry-based activities (not research).
