  • Use Unit 1 Biological Bases when the first-week plan moves quickly into core AP Psychology content after the opener.
  • Use assessments, weekly quizzes, or FRQ practice when the first-week problem is checking readiness and setting review routines.
  • Use the full curriculum route when you need consistent lesson materials across the year rather than one starter unit.
