Click here to download a preview of the Principles of Ecology Digital Interactive Notebook.

The Principles of Ecology Digital Science Interactive Notebook was designed to help teachers and learners in online settings have resources that set students up for success in mastering science concepts.

The Digital Notebook mirrors the NGS Magnified traditional science interactive notebooks with an input right-hand side for notes and an output left-hand side activity so students can apply what they learned immediately. Left-hand side activities are varied to meet the multiple learning styles of all your students.

This resource is designed so students can work independently, having built-in instructional videos (closed-captioning available), resources for exploring further, and clear directions.

When students have completed a section, you have the option of doing a full-class review using the BLOOKET online review games (links included) for a super fun way to assess if students are understanding the material.
