Seventh hour. I’m in one of my most liked classes staring at the board after completing an intense test. The bell rings and I wave to my teacher as I walk out the door. Confidence builds as my anticipation increases for the coming A. This experience is what occurs in my AP Biology class. Biology is the subject I enjoy the most due to its incorporation of other subjects, the feeling that I am learning something every day, and my amazing teacher Mr. Benskin. Perhaps one of my favorite things about AP Biology, however, is its ability to include other subjects in its curriculum.
When Boca High students sign up for a class, they would expect to work only upon that class’s topic and nothing else. In my biology class, however, we learn not only science, but math and history as well. In the middle of a lesson, my teacher walks calmly to the board and works upon math, connecting it to the day’s lesson by using examples such as 4mL + -10mL equals a pH of 6. Other days he goes back to the beginning of life and …show more content…
Every day is a much-needed one in order to achieve greatness in life. In Biology, each day is different from every other. On Monday, the class might discuss mitochondria and how it functions within our cells. We literally dissolve into our notes and become enveloped in the environment of the cell, experiencing science on cellular level. On Tuesday, we would expand upon the Mitochondria and incorporate other structures of the cell by creating a list and having to break down each organelle into its functions and parts. No two days of notes are alike and this provides me with the feeling that I am actually learning! No other class of mine provides me with this feeling and that is what makes my Biology class all the more enjoyable and ideal to its students and
