AP Biology Summer Assignment 2019 Mr. Lane & Mrs. Waldbaum Welcome to AP Biology! We are looking forward to a great year together in AP Biology. As you know, this is a college-level course culminating with an AP exam in early May. In order to cover the extensive amount of material that is on the exam, we have designed this summer assignment to refresh your memory on graphing and experimental design. It will also help orient you to the textbook and corresponding reading guides we will be using throughout the year. The course will require you to read your textbook on a weekly basis, analyze and interpret data, and apply your content knowledge to various situations. Your assignments for the summer are as follows: 1. Complete the Graphing Packet 2. Read Chapters 1-5 in the text book 3. Answer the questions on the reading guides for each chapter. These may be typed or hand- written. Please make sure you complete the reading guides thoroughly and completely. Answers to all questions may be found in the textbook chapters provided, but simply skimming the chapters for a one or two word answer will not suffice. You should read the entire chapter and use the reading guide questions as a supplemental support to make sure you are grasping the most important concepts of the chapters. Reading guides will be given for each chapter throughout the year, and 10 point open-notebook quizzes will be given on each one the day they are due. The purpose of these quizzes is to boost your average and to ensure you are understanding the basic key concepts so we may spend class time exploring more complex ones. The due dates for the summer assignments are as follows: Wednesday, September 4 th – Collect Graphing Packet Friday, September 6 th – Open Notebook Reading Guide Quiz (Chapters 1-3) Friday, September 13 th – Open Notebook Reading Guide Quiz (Chapters 4-5) If you have any questions on the summer assignment, you may feel free to contact either one of us. Our email addresses are: Mr. Lane: [email protected] Mrs. Waldbaum: [email protected] Copies of the summer assignments may be found on the Plainedge website, or Mr. Lane’s website (www.mrlane.org). The textbook chapters must be obtained from us in Room 102a or 104, and will also be shared with you via email. Enjoy your summer, and happy reading!
