Revisit Science Practice Skills Self Assessment- how are you doing with mastering the skills?
1) Pick a book if you have not already done so from AP Biology Non Fiction Reading List (you might be able to check a book out from our library even)
if you already have a book bring it for tomorrow to work
2) Start reading and journal 1 page in a new blank notebook after each chapter for Part 1 (If your book has more than 15 chapters you can do a 1 page journal entry after 2 chapters)
