AP Biology End of the Year Countdown 2014

To review for the AP Exam this year we will be using the Bozeman Science AP Biology youtube videos.

You will be given assigned videos to watch each evening and then be prepared for a pop quiz the following day. You will need to turn in a synopsis of the video following the format below:

1. Write the title of the video and the time of the video.

2. Draw the mind map diagram Mr. Anderson gives you for the video.

3. Write down all the essential information he gives you in bullet points.

4. Turn this in with your name and date at the top of the paper the following day.

5. Be prepared for a pop quiz over this information.

We will also be using some of these videos in class to prepare for the Exam. This will be accompanied by in class writing activities for a grade. You will be graded on the CONTENT and the depth of knowledge. You will receive up to 10 points which will be translated in to a grade for the essay. Be prepared each day to do your BEST.
