Biology Kimball's Essays
Not sure you have all of the information for a lesson? Want to check out fantastic information? Then check out Kimball's Essays. Created by Dr. John Kimball for the infamous Kimball's Biology books, the information is alphabetized by topics. Within each "topic" there are pictures, explanations, and easy to understand information. Every beginning teacher should bookmark Kimball's essays! Especially when you get the dreaded question that you have to respond "I am not sure but I will get back to you!". For example, one student asked if it was possible for human females to produce eggs/follicles after birth; we were always taught that all females are born with their "clutch" and that's it. But recent studies have shown that females do, in fact, produce follicles post birth. I wasn't sure so I checked it out. I appreciate the accurate information and complete diaglogue. Even though the founder passed away last year (2005), his legacy still lives on! http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/
