1 AP Environmental Science Summer Assignment Mrs. Carlson, Welcome to AP Environmental Science! This class is highly intensive, with a lot of material that needs to be covered. Please be aware that part of taking this class is commitment to being on time, on task, and hard working. Although AP Environmental Science (APES) is a huge commitment, we will have a lot of fun. I look forward to working with each one of you next year! Here are a few items of interest before you get started on the summer assignment. I know the words summer assignment tends to send chills down any high school student s spine, but I think that you will find that this assignment will be very beneficial to you as we start the school year in the fall and even a little fun! The reason I am giving you a summer assignment is to keep your mind sharp and thinking, so you are ready to hit the ground running! There are a few assignments to be completed prior to the first day of school. One of these mandatory assignments is a Math assignment. All work is to be shown. The Math portion will be due on August 24th, during your class period not by the end of the day Mandatory Assignment #1- Introduction letter First, I would like to know a little about who you are so your first assignment is to send me an . Yup.that s it! Your first AP Environmental Science grade will be sending me an if only all of the grades were this easy! I will reply so you have electronic record that your assignment was received.

Join our class Twitter (you can sign up for this on your own) I do not use tweet as often but we do have a class twitter page. We will use it mostly for recent environmental article reviews. Again you should follow our class twitter page, however for professional reasons I will NOT follow your personal pages on Twitter. Twitter account: AHS Mrs. 2. Join our Remind Text Class. When I need to send out fast class information quickly or send out reminders I use Remind. It will send you automatic text messages from me. 2
3 3. Join our APES Google Classroom: Log in to your AHS Google (Gmail) To join a class with a course code: 1. Sign in to Classroom at classroom.google.com. 2. Click Enter the code: 20dtm2 in the box and click Join. This is where you will post some class assignments. If you are having difficulties with this contact me at: rcarlson@aledoisd.org Mandatory Assignment #3 - Get your supplies for APES Get yourself ready for class! Below is the list of supplies that you will need for class. WOW, it is quite a list, but one thing you can be assured of is that our class is interactive that being said you will need the proper tools to engage in project based, interactive learning, labs and classroom activities. 1. Composition Journal, college ruled. Will be used daily in class for notes and daily activities. ONE 1 ½ -2 inch binder White with clear cover for title page. Will be kept in class and used to store Review Materials for APES Exam and carbon copies of your labs. This will be your review binder and very important the last quarter of school. Lab Notebook - Pick an option o Option 1: Composition Journal Graphing paper. Can be found at Walmart, Target or Staples o Option 2: National Brand Laboratory Notebook, 4 X 4 Quad, Brown, Carbonless, 11 x 9.25 Inches, 100 Sets (43649) Can be purchased at Amazon for $19.95 or through various office supply stores Will be used for all required APES labs. Blue/Black pens and Red Pen (for corrections) & pencils (for testing days) Pack of highlighters (several different colors). Will be used for journal. 3
4 Colored pencils or markers that WILL NOT bleed through pages of notebook Stapler and or double sided tape. Will be used to secure items in your journal Post it notes (various sizes and colors pack of small, medium, and large post-its) will be used for various journal activities. Pack of Post it divider tabs for journal Pack of 8 dividers for your review binder ONE bottle/container of Clorox wipes Will be used for those messy labs and sanitation TWO rolls of paper towels Will be used during various labs and activities for clean up Mandatory Assignment #4 Get your journal ready for Semester ONE of APES! In our APES course, students keep an interactive student notebook (ISN), where you will document your learning and interact with course content. On any given day, we could be doing one of the following things in our notebook: Solving practice problems Interpreting graphs or diagrams Creating graphic organizers or concept maps about APES content Writing practice free response questions The activities we will do in our journal are meant to allow you to interact with the APES content of our class in various ways. The more ways you interact with the concepts, the more likely you will be able to apply them to new situations, whether it is a test or a lab investigation. To create your journal, you will need a Composition notebook. This is important because by the end of the year, you will have a homemade study guide. This summer: You will need to decorate the cover of your ISN with a collage of some sort that represents you. I recommend that you cover the front of your notebook with clear packing tape once you have completed the cover to add durability, but also to protect the collage you make. We will go over how to set up the inside of the ISN in class on the second day of class so be sure you have your notebook with you in class so that you can get it set up. It is important that you keep up with your ISN on a daily basis, since this learning log is the physical representation of your processing of course concepts. We will use this notebook in class on a daily basis to catalog all the learning that you do both inside and outside the classroom, so it is important that you have it with you each day. The picture below illustrates a little bit about what an ISN is, and how it might appear. 4
5 Mandatory Assignment #6 Math Review (don t worry, there are only 11 problems!) Percentages 17% = 17/100 = = 0.17 Remember that percent literally means divided by 100. A percentage is a measure of the part of the whole, or part divided by whole. a. 15 million is what percentage of the US population? = =.05 = 5% b. What is 20% of this $15 bill so that I can give a good tip? $15 x 20% = $15 x 0.2 = $3 Rates rate = slope = m = = All of the above are ways to look at rates. The last equation is the easiest way to calculate a rate, especially from looking at a graph. Rates will often be written using the word per followed by a unit of time, o cases per year o grams per minute o miles per hour The word per means to divide, so miles per gallon is actually the number of miles driven divided by one gallon. Rates are calculating how much an amount changes in a given amount of time. Scientific Notation Thousand = 10 3 = 1,000 Million = 10 6 = 1,000,000 (is used when talking about people in the US) Billion = 10 9 = 1,000,000,000 (is used when talking about people on Earth) Trillion = = 1,000,000,000,000 (is used when talking about the National debt) When using very large numbers, scientific notation is often easiest to manipulate. o For example, the US population is 300 million people or 300x10 6 or 3x10 8 When adding or subtracting, exponents must be the same. Add the numbers in front of the ten and keep the exponent the same. When multiplying or dividing, multiply or divide the number in front of the ten and add the exponents if multiplying or subtract the exponents if dividing Online tutorial: Example (9 x 10 6 ) / (3 x 10 2 ) = (9/3) x 10 (6-2) = 3 x
6 Dimensional Analysis (Unit Conversion) You should be able to convert any unit into any other unit accurately using a conversion table if given the conversion factor. Online tutorials are available: Prefixes Prefix (examples) milli (millimeter, milliliter, milligram) cent (centimeter, centiliter, centigram) kilo (kilometer, kiloliter, kilogram, kilobyte) mega (megabyte) giga (gigabyte) tera (terabyte) Letter denotation (examples) Proportion of Base Unit Proportion of Base Unit (in Scientific Notation) m (mm, ml, mg) 1/1000 = 10-3 c (cm, cl, cg) 1/100 = 10-2 k (km, kl, kg, kb) M (Mb) G (Gb) T (Tb) 1,000, ,000,000, ,000,000,000, Long Division and Multiplication You should be able to do these calculations by hand, including values with decimals and scientific notation. Many students struggle in this area because calculators are not allowed on the AP exam. Online tutorials are available: 6
7 Math Problems Answer the questions. Use a separate sheet of paper if necessary. Show all work 1. Scientific Notation: What is one hundred million times one hundred thousand? Show your work in scientific notation. Give the answer in scientific notation and in words. 2. Percentages: A population of endangered mountain gorillas had 324 individuals. If the population grows by 25% in one year, how many gorillas will there be the next year? 3. Percentages: France caught 150 tons of Bluefin tuna one month and 242 tons the next. By what percentage did the amount of tuna caught increase by (round to the nearest tenth of a percent)? 4. Rates / Prefixes / Unit Conversion: Electricity costs 7 cents per kilowatt hour. In one month one home uses 2.1 megawatt hours of electricity. How much will the electric bill be? (be sure to look at the prefixes chart for the conversion of kilo to mega) 5. Rates: Your car gets 25 miles to the gallon and your friend s car gets 30 miles to the gallon. You decide to go on a road trip to South by Southwest in Austin, TX, which is 210 miles away. If gas costs $3.50 per gallon and you decide to split the gas money, how much money will you save in gas by driving your friend s car? 6. Rates: A city contains 1,750 homes and each home uses 240 kwh (kilowatt-hours) per month. How many kwh does the entire city use each month? If 4 people live in each house, what is the average per capita energy consumption? 7. Percentages: The concentration of mercury in a water supply changes from 80 ppm (parts per million) to 63 ppm over a ten-year period. What is the percentage change of the mercury concentration? Round to the nearest hundredth. 7
8 8. Long Division and Multiplication: Show your work for the following multiplication and division problems. You can use a calculator to check your work, but I want to see that you understand how to solve these problems by hand. Just like on the AP exam, no credit is given if you don t show your work x x x10-3 x / / x10 3 / Unit Conversion: AHS s football field is approximately 53 yards wide and 120 yards long. If one inch of rain falls on the field, how many cubic feet of rain fell on the field? (Hint: convert all units to feet first) 10. Rates: The combustion of one gallon of automobile fuel produces about 5 pounds of carbon (in CO 2). Two autos are making a trip of 600 miles. The first auto gets 20 miles per gallon, and the second gets 30 miles per gallon. Approximately how much less carbon (in CO 2) will be produced by the second auto on this trip? 11. Rates: How many oranges are in a crate if the price of a crate of oranges is $1.60 and the price of oranges is $0.20 per pound and there are 3 oranges per pound? 8
