Welcome to AP Biology!
2003 Summer Assignment
Ecology Summer Assignment 2003
We have a tremendous amount of work ahead of us before May 2004!
I hope you are all up for the challenge! To start us off I have
attached your 2003 Summer Assignment. The assignment consists of
two parts:
Part 1:
• Read Chapters 24 -28 in your text (Biology 4th Edition)
• I strongly suggest making yourself notes or an outline of
each chapter and becoming familiar with the key terms (terms in
bold) within each chapter.
• We will have an Ecology Unit Test very soon after your return
to school!
Part 2:
• All students taking Advanced Placement Biology will be required
to complete a multimedia project as their summer assignment. Students
will choose from one of the biomes found on the Earth and create
a presentation which will cover many aspects of a specific ecosystem
within that biome. See next page for full details.
• Part 2 of this assignment is due by August 20, 2003!
• Your presentation must be saved to an appropriate electronic
media and either hand delivered or mailed to my home (postmarked
prior to midnight August 20, 2003).
o Address: 691 Profile Rd., Bethlehem, NH 03574
• Your presentation may also be emailed to me – but
this is often a difficult route to take with PowerPoint presentations.
If you email me I will confirm receipt with a reply. If you do not
hear from me within 24 hours – assume I have not received
your message!
