  4. Biology EOC • Biology EOC is based on the course description for Biology 1 • Benchmarks of similar content are grouped together under the AA benchmark • Fair Game Principle applies (all middle school content is expected) • 60-66 MC questions; a periodic table and calculator will be provided • Reporting Categories (clusters) • Item Specifications will be posted very soon on our website…

  8. Follow Up • After Day 1: Submit a written reflection on one of the labs performed describing how the lab/lesson will impact your instruction and student understanding of the content. Include copies of the lab performed supporting your reflection. • After Day 2: Develop a full lesson plan incorporating the information learned at the workshop. Make sure to include objectives, essential questions, and benchmark(s)/content addressed.
