What are the most important concepts/objectives to focus on in Freshman high school life science?
December 1, 2025
I am tutoring a homeschool high school freshman in life science. He has no curriculum or books so I have been using our state standards and basically winging it with supplemental materials. I have covered animal and plant cell structure, mitosis and photosynthesis. We also have discussed Darwin's theory of evolution and the evolutionary process in mainly primates- apes/humans and wolves/dogs. We recently have covered habitats and ecosystems in a general sense. What else should I include over the next three weeks? He has major test anxiety so I stay away from big exams and give him short quizzes every week. All help is appreciated!
