Biology is a life-changing subject. By the end of ninth grade you will have learned an incredible amount! You will understand so much more about yourself and the living organisms all around us. Bio is from the Greek "Bios" meaning life. Enjoy :)

Do more than memorize. Knowledge is just the first step in Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning. Ponder and assimilate the wealth of information after you commit the facts to memory. Be prepared to use what you have learned to analyze and evaluate unknown situations. Science is all about discovery in uncharted realms.
