Where can you study biology? Everywhere! Do you need special equipment? No! Biology is the study of life, and life is all around you. You can find life thriving in the city and in the country, teeming in ecosystems around the planet-in deserts, oceans, and even the Arctic. Backyard Biology: Discover the Life Cycles and Adaptations Outside Your Door with Hands-On Science Activities introduces readers ages 9 to 12 to the amazing world of life science right outside their doors, no matter where they live. Plentiful text-to-self and text-to-world connections provide foundational learning. This title has been revised and updated to reflect 2020 educational standards and incorporate new scientific discoveries! Backyard Biology: Discover the Life Cycles and Adaptations Outside Your Door with Hands-On Science Activities invites readers ages 9 through 12 to investigate living things in their own environments, including yards, parks, nature areas, and playgrounds. Backyard Biology turns readers into Nature Detectives with activities and projects that encourage children to build on a foundation of textual discovery and apply their knowledge to real-world problems and solutions. Activities include constructing a plankton net to collect pond samples and growing microorganisms in a Winogradsky column. Projects use materials already in most homes, reimagining and repurposing everyday items, as well as mining the recycling bin!
