Greetings AP Students and welcome to section 1!
I've created a Google spreadsheet that lists each of the e-mail assignments (remember to visit http://milliga9.weebly.com/ap-bio-summer.html to get the topic for each section) and grades. This will help you track what you have or haven't done and your grade. This will allow you to notify me if there is anything wrong with your scores as soon as possible since we don't have access to Zangle and Student Connect during the summer. As soon as the semester starts your grade will be entered as one assignment into Zangle.
I will allow re-writes on e-mail questions as long as your first attempt was turned in ON TIME :)
I was told today that the login and password for Campbell Biology wasn't working properly. A new set was e-mailed out to everyone on 6/20. Please let me know immediately if you have any problems.
Graphing - remember to use the graphing packet to review. We're all going to be at different levels when it comes to making and reading graphs. If you need a little boost above just the packet, you may want to use the Campbell website (www.campbellbiology.com). When you login, look towards the bottom of the page for Concept 1.5. The first link below it is called Graph It: An Introduction to Graphing. This practice will do the graphing for you and ask you to do more analyzing. Check it out.
This blog was initially set up for a couple of my MSU master's course but is now evolving into more...

AP Bio Summer Work.....dun dun dun
Ok next generation of biology dorks, here's the scoop on your summer work.
1. Pick it up :) If you didn't pick up your packet before June 14th, you can stop in during summer school registration or the first week of summer school (more details will be posted).
2. You can do as much or as little as you want, but the work has been divided into 5 2 week sections (actually the last one is only one week). E-mail questions must be turned in by the listed due date.
3. E-mail questions - they are listed on the class website under the AP Bio Summer tab and are due every two weeks. These are the only assignments that will be grades and the grade will be a part of your 1st marking period grade.
4. Now that might make it sound like you don't need to do the rest of the work, but that's not the case. The work assigned (notes, practice, reading, quizzes) are designed to help you focus your ideas and review your content knowledge.
5. To help you with your summer work and ensure that you are on the right track, answer keys will be posted AFTER the due date. Suggested answer keys for chapter notes will be posted all summer. I would recommend reading the chapters and taking your own notes - then using my notes to add anything you missed or didn't understand during your first read.
6. Please contact me if you have questions - go forth this summer and use your powers for good!
