Description
If you are looking for the best NGSS-aligned curriculum to use with your biology students, look no further than Inquiry Hub. Developed by a team of researchers from University of Colorado Boulder and Northwestern University, this open-source curriculum follows a "storyline" approach in which all units begin with a puzzling phenomena. One of their units has been reviewed by Achieve and has been rated as an example of "High Quality NGSS Design" (which not many high school curriculums have been able to achieve).

While their curriculum is free, I have made considerable changes to all of their handouts and slide decks. That is what this resource consists of- the iHub slide decks HEAVILY modified with additional interactive activities, labs, several necessary changes in order and pacing, and behind the scenes teacher instructions.
What are these materials?
- Each material in this folder is an adapted version of the slides available for lessons 1-4 and 6-7 of the DMD storyline from iHub BUT heavy changes were made
- All slides include ACCURATE time estimates... iHub is notorious for its inaccurate pacing. Mine are based on the average student population (including large groups of English learners!)
Do you recommend purchasing this resource by itself?
Of course you can! However, these slides work BEST when paired with the digital handouts + keys resource. Click here to view ALL my resources for the DMD Bend.
Why are your slides not exactly like the ones on the Next Gen Storylines website?
I have taught these units for 5 years with 5 different cohorts of students. I have found most (if not all) of the weaknesses that exist in the curriculum. Many changes were made to improve the curriculum and therefore improve student success. If you have any questions about a change that was made and how to implement it in your classroom, feel free and email me at jennica@jumpintopd.com.
Where are the materials for lesson 8 and 9?
In years past I have given lesson 8 as an assessment. I don’t teach lesson 9 anymore.
Where are the materials for lessons 10-15?
These are included in my separate resource for the CRISPR unit.
What order do you teach these units in?
The units can theoretically be taught in any order. However, these resources work best when taught in the following order:
iHub Ecosystems Unit:
- Serengeti Bend
- Trees Bend
iHub Evolution Unit:
- Addie Bend
iHub Genetics Unit:
- DMD Bend
- CRISPR Bend
