The Biology Corner is a resource site for biology and science teachers. The Lesson Plans section contains classroom activities, labs and worksheets, feel free to change any of these to suit your own classroom needs. The Webquest section contains inquiry based projects that utilize the internet. Internet lessons (also called miniquests) are smaller activities that use one or two science related web sites for the students to explore and answer questions about. Again, feel free to modify these activities so that they work for your class and your style of teaching.

I've been making it a personal mission to locate and compile interactive science education sites. Some web programs like Flash can create some amazing virtual labs that students can really benefit from. You will find many of these places in the section under internet lessons, all of which utilize fantastic websites to help students understand scientific concepts. Please contact me if you know of other sites (particularly shockwave virtual labs) and I'll add more lessons.

Answer keys are not included, due to the fact my students use this site.

In other news -

I am teaching a new class this semester - Anatomy and Physiology. There is a link to the site for that class but it is a work in progress, I will add things to it as I go. The intro physics class website was never finished because at the last minute, my class schedule changed, I haven't actually taught the class and the materials I gathered and created haven't been used. I did leave what little I had up just in case someone could use it.
