Welcome to AP Biology!


 

Congratulations!  You have registered to take AP Biology next fall.  Your decision to continue to develop your skills and knowledge as a scientist will offer you many valuable opportunities and career pathways. 


This summer, we will begin to get to know each other as a class and learn about science together, through our book club, Your Inner Fish.  This book tells the story of the human body and how we have evolved over millions of years.

  Your assignment this summer is to read the book and reflect on it through online blog posts.

Assignment 1: 
Your first assignment is to introduce yourself.  Let me know any activities you enjoy, why you decided to take AP Biology, and one question you have about science.  You should also get a copy of "Your Inner Fish" by Neil Shubin.  You can buy it from Amazon, check it out at the library, or download a copy here.  Post your information in the comments.
