AP Environmental Science Science Project
This science project outline is something I like to do during second semester of my AP Environmental Science class. This is a great semester long project to get the students to engage in the process of science with a topic that they are passionate about. This follows the semester 1 ecocolumns project, so it provides them some independence with checkpoints and timelines to make sure they are progressing through the semester. Students will present their projects once the AP exam has been taken

Dust Bowl PSA Poster Project — Causes, Effects & Soil Conservation Lesson
This ready-to-use Dust Bowl activity goes beyond the basics. Instead of just asking students what happened, it pushes them to think about why farming practices and government policy led to the Dust Bowl. Then connect 1930s mistakes to modern soil conservation challenges today. Students then apply this knowledge by creating a PSA poster aimed to promoting more sustainable farming practices.

Owl Pellet Project with Intro, Sorting, Reconstruction, Graphs, & Questions!
I used this with my Environmental Science class. It is a compilation of owl pellet resources I've used over the years. I re-typed it and added an introduction at the beginning with comprehension questions. It took a full week in a daily 80-minute block schedule to complete this, so a standard 40-minute model would need closer to two weeks. I have included a rubric at the end of the project. I know there are a lot of Owl Pellet activities out there. If you are looking to have students do a DEEP D

AP Environmental Science Unit 6 Project on Energy Efficiency
I like to give my students this project as a way to explore alternative energy and allow them to look at the pros and cons of several energy sources. This gets students to research energy efficient schools around the U.S. to see what the benefits are for your school to convert to those sources, while still looking at when the benefits of energy efficiency offset the initial costs to set up. I allow students the freedom of choosing the modeling software, but it is mainly exploratory as they wil
