Use Your Words

Now that we've figured out all we need to know about biology, let's focus on what really matters:  WORDS.  E.M. Forster famously asked, "How do I know what I think until I see what I say?"  Good question, E.M.  Words are what allow us to think, or at least to express our thinking, and to reveal our understanding.  This week, we'll begin focusing on our amazing language--reading, writing, and talking about it in all sorts of ways.  ALSO, we'll start some serious boot camp shape-up for the AP exam:  Be all that you can be!
