AP Biology 2025!
Over the summer, I would like you to review some chemistry and biology. This is a form of enrichment, a way to keep you engaged with the content. It is important for everyone to take a break from school, but it is also important for you to "brush up" given the fact that some of you had biology two years ago, and some of you are just now taking chemistry.
Based on your experience you will be given a chance to choose your summer assignment from the parts listed below.
Everyone will be completing Part 1. From there you can choose to either do Part 2, 3 or 4. (or all if you choose)
Part 2 is a video learning/review of major concepts that were covered in Biology your sophomore year.
Part 3 is root word investigation, where you will be given the opportunity to look up and come up with definitions for the most used biology words, prefixes and suffixes.
Part 4 is an essential chemistry review. This is highly recommended if you have not had chemistry and you are currently enrolled in Honors Chemistry.
The summer enrichment work is due during your first week of school (this work is not being graded). You will have the chance to turn it in on Classroom once you log in (which will be on the first day or second day of school during your class period).
Can’t wait to see you!
