An overview of human body systems and how they function. Advanced Placement United States History is a yearlong course designed to mirror the curriculum and rigor that would accompany any entry level college course in American History. The class will follow the predesigned master schedule. Course assignments will include primary and secondary resources in order to reach a deeper understanding of historical concepts and patterns. Readings will be coupled with classroom activities, comparisons, discussions, practice assessments and weekly assignments. Every attempt will be made on the part of the instructor to integrate all modes of learning and styles of instruction, including the use of technology. Every student who is enrolled in this course is expected to take the AP US History Exam. This course is the first half of two-year sequence designed to follow the Massachusetts State Frameworks for Biology and prepare students for success on the Biology MCAS exam in the spring of the student's sophomore year. This lab course concentrates on the cell, its structure, functions, and variety and introduces how genetic problems within the cell affect the entire individual. Instruction involves laboratory activities, reports and research.
