 * BioEYES alignment with Indiana Science Standards, K-12 **

toc



For each grade level, new (Summer 2008) Core Standards are given, together with associated standard indicators (linked in the new standards to the indicator list from the prior set of standards.) Indicators are only included in this list if they seem to meet the following broad criterion: "is there a fairly clear way in which the BioEYES experience could be adapted to meet that standard indicator?" The resulting list is thus a **starting point** for aligning the BioEYES experience to standards for each K-8 grade level and for Biology I. (Indicators whose grade level has changed in the new standards have the older grade level highlighted: e.g., **3**.2.1)
