Patterns Biology
Do you have the most up-to-date Patterns Biology materials?
The Patterns Biology Council - a development team of teacher leaders - recently did a review of materials, making updates and archiving older materials when appropriate.
To be granted access to these materials, please fill our the Patterns Biology Access Request Google Form. Once you are registered, you will have access to the newest materials in two Google Shared Drives: Patterns Biology Open Access and Patterns Biology - Restricted Access.
Have you been a Patterns Biology user for a few years? Are you still accessing materials in the "Biology NGSS" and "Biology NGSS Teachers Only" folders? These folders are no longer being updated, and will be decommissioned at the end of the 2023-2024 school year. At that point, all relevant files will have been moved to the Google Shared Drive.
Need Distance Learning Materials?
Our Patterns Biology development team of teacher leaders has been working hard since the spring of 2020 to develop Distance Learning versions of the Patterns Biology units. Our DL units can be used in either a fully online or a hybrid school model. Click on each Unit link below to find resources designed for in-person learning as well as distance learning.
To request access to the restricted access materials for teachers only, please visit the Restricted Access page and fill out the form.
