Welcome to Ms. Harvey's AP Biology Wikispace.


Check this page regularly for information on homework, what we did in class each day, exam and lab report due dates, and important class handouts.

A. P. Biology Summer Assignment

Read Chapters 50-55 from the textbook, Biology AP Edition, 7th edition, by Campbell & Reece. Complete the study packets for these chapters (you picked these up the
last week of school).

Due on the first day of school will be the study packet of questions on Chapters 50-55. Your first exam will cover these chapters. We will review these chapters the first week of school, and your exam is scheduled for Tuesday of the second week of school. It will help you greatly if you study the "Self-Quiz" at the end of each chapter, as well as the sample quizzes used in class.
