- Water Properties Lab (with error bars on the graph) is due Monday. Here's the data to analyze for averages and SEM bars.
- Watch the protein case study videos Monday night.
- Protein POGIL due Tuesday.
- We are going to have to skip the Kitchen Chemistry Lab, so be sure to watch the video demonstration of it on the Edpuzzle playlist (after 3-II video).
- Classifying Organic Molecules packet due Friday.
- Watch 4-I video and take the Microscope Pre-Lab quiz (found below) Saturday. These documents/websites should help you ace the quiz:
- Notebooks and Wonders are due Thursday, 10/1, if you want them back same day. If you submit them on Friday, you'll earn full credit but you won't have them for the weekend. Unit 1 Wonders include 1.1-1.7 AND Goals AND Study Strategies. Goals page (2B) should include:
- What score you want on the AP Bio exam
- Where and when you will study for AP Biology
- Helpful study strategies
- Two pieces of wisdom from past students
- How you will reward yourself for doing well in AP Biology
For Study Strategies, watch two of the following videos and make notes on page 4 about what strategy you want to use:
