Begin to develop a course plan by unit and topic that incorporates the full scope of your AP course into your school’s academic calendar
Examine formative and summative assessment items to identify content and skill pairings that are the targets of these assessments and create lesson plans to reinforce content and skill connections

Identify student strengths and weakness using data available through AP Classroom and Instructional Planning Reports
Explore ready-to-use strategies, instructional materials, and pedagogical tools pertinent to the content and skills required for success in your AP course
