The Living Earth

We've made some changes!

A snapshot of some new features:

• Practical investigations: These are clearly identified and revised as "hands-on" activities. There are a number of new investigations and equipment lists are provided.
• New & Updated Content: There is some new content and the flow of material within some activities has been revised to provide greater coherence to the program.
• Some Activities Simplified: Many activities have been considerably revised to simplify them and make them more accessible to a wider student audience, particularly with respect to the complexity of the material and reading level.
• Additional Coding: To assist teachers in navigating the curriculum:
  • Resource Hub icons indicate specific targets for Resource hub content (Student and Teacher's Edition).
  • Group icons indicate to the instructor where students work collaboratively (Student and Teacher's Edition).
  • CA CCSS alignments to the CA NGSS Framework for ELA/ELD and math are included (Teacher's Edition only).
  • Red Tag codes Placed in the margin indicate specific performance expectations (Teacher's Edition only).
• Assessments: Performance expectations are clearly identified for teachers and summative assessments have been revised accordingly.
