Biology – Terms 1 - 4 (sold separately) This paper and pencil course provides an in-depth study of living organisms and the processes that sustain life. Students explore major biological concepts including cell structure and function, molecular biology, genetics, evolution, ecology, and biodiversity. The course emphasizes the real-world relevance of biology through current examples and scientific applications. Scientific inquiry is a key component of the course. Students engage in making observations, forming hypotheses, collecting and analyzing data, and communicating results. Lab experiences include a combination of virtual simulations, home-based experiments using everyday materials, and pre-recorded demonstrations, offering flexible and meaningful hands-on learning. Throughout the four terms, students develop a strong foundation in biological science and improve their ability to think critically, solve problems, and collaborate. By the end of the course, students will have gained a deeper understanding of the principles of life and how biology connects to their daily experiences and future academic pursuits.
