1. SEPTEMBER 10, 2015 AP BIO DO NOW: T4 Pill bug Lab. Hole punch it and place in your notebook in the section for Labs/ Big Idea 4 LEARNING TARGET: I am able to justify the selection of the kind of data needed to answer scientific questions about the relevant mechanism that organisms use to respond to changes in their external environment. LESSON: Lab 12 Pill Bug Behavior HOMEWORK REMINDER: Check out textbooks

2. Introductory Unit Lessons Fish Scientific Method Bozeman videos – Science practices 1-4 – Intro to AP biology with questions Pill Bug Lab Chi Square

3. How much homework can I expect? Students should expect to complete a MINIMUM of 5- 10 hours of study OUTSIDE of class each week. Students taking multiple AP courses should be aware of the time commitment required by each. KEEPING UP WITH THE READING IS VERY IMPORTANT! Read your textbook nightly. Stay up-to-date; Be prepared for a pop-quiz over reading assignments at any time. Homework is assigned nightly. This is not a class where cramming the day before a test will work!

4. What are the 4 Big Ideas for AP BIOLOGY? Big Idea 1: The process of evolution drives the diversity and unity of life. Big Idea 2: Biological systems utilize free energy and 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 possess complex properties.

5. WHAT ARE THE STUDENT PRACTICES? The student can: 1. use representations and models to communicate scientific phenomena and solve scientific 2. use mathematics appropriately 3. engage in scientific questioning to extend thinking or to guide investigations within the context of the AP course 4. plan and implement data collection strategies in relation to a particular scientific question 5. perform data analysis and evaluation of evidence 6. work with scientific explanations and theories 7. connect and relate knowledge across various scales, concepts, and representations in and across domains

6. The LABS Minimum of 8 labs/2 per each Big Idea Emphasis on student-directed, inquiry-based laboratory investigations Big Idea 1: EVOLUTION Lab 1. Artificial Selection Lab 2.
