So, in class today, it was suggested that we have a competition for the best APES puns. As you review over the next few weeks, post any you think of here.
The best one will get 10 bonus points on a single grade assignment. I'm willing to consider there being more than one winner.
Have fun (but keep it clean!)
And the link to the comic that shows relative depths: http://xkcd.com/1040/ (you should check out how deep the Russian's have gotten in their goal to get to the mantle).
EDIT: Tap in to APES teachers from all over the US (not just me!) by joining the National APES review on FB. As of 4/19 its a bit slow there, but over the next three weeks it will get REALLY hopping! Go here: http://www.facebook.com/groups/114430001915985/

Habitat destruction may not seem risky to some now, but they will eventually see how it will in fact be no fauna at all.

DeleteNice job, so far, guys! Some mnemonics (not puns) that I saw on the AP Enviro teacher email list:
ReplyDelete- TRees are in the TRoposphere. We live with the trees and it rains on the trees (so weather occurs here) and trees produce oxygen.
- Way to remember Granite (continental crust) and Basalt (oceanic crust) - there is salt water in the ocean and also in the name baSALT
- HIPPCO: Main causes of extinction ("Habitat loss, Invasives, Population growth, Pollution, Climate change and Overexploitation")
- OAEBCR ("Only ants eat bread crumbs."): Order of the soil horizons.
