AP Biology is a challenging course for both teachers and students. The week will focus on understanding and using the Course and Exam Document, scope and sequence, as well as building a pacing calendar. We will also emphasize the development of skills necessary for student success on the AP Biology exam as well as a detailed breakdown of the exam experience and scoring process. Participants will engage in lab activities that develop course specific science skills and reinforce Biological content.
