AP So Far… A Review over chapters 1 21*
Objective • To Catch up on main ideas • Address any hindrances • Prepare for the AP exam and Final
AP’s Ideas.. • Big Idea 1 The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life • Big Idea 2 Biological systems utilize free energy an molecular building blocks to grow, to reproduce, and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. • Big Idea 3 Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to information essential to life processes. • Big Idea 4 Biological systems interact, and these systems and their interactions posses complex properties.
Units Covered So far… • The Chemistry of Life: • Chapters 1 5 • The Cell: • Chapters 6 12 • Genetics: • Chapters 13 15 • Gene Activity & Biotechnology: • Chapters 16 21*

Finishing out the year… Group Assignment and Projects
The Fourth Marking Period Project • Get into groups of three/four • Each group will be assigned a unit of exploration • For each group you need the following roles: • Leader • Is responsible for the overall group competency • Time keeping, workflow, overall • Designer • Is responsible for the project outline, and creating how the project is to be presented • Researcher* (can be more than one) • Uses outside sources to support unit objectives. • Gives information to the designer and help with the project outline and “look”
The Task… • Your team is going to present on the assigned unit. • The group will be charged with creating a lesson that encompasses: • Introductory Lesson • 2 Activity/Explore Lessons • Assessment Lesson • The group will be given 60min. to present.
TimeLine… • You will have two weeks to prepare, aka 5 class periods starting from today. • *Revised*: The due date is April 11th. • All groups must have work completed.
What you will receive… • Rubric • Unit Goals • Suggested Activities • Chapters Covered • Chapter Study Packets
Tying it all together… • My task is to take from each presentation and compile a final assessment.
Remember… • Even though you have two weeks, be sure to get together after class. • Have fun with the Unit!!
