REVIEW...
We will review last week's TEST and talk about the importance of STUDYING FOR OUR TESTS!!! Many did wonderfully last week - but I could tell not all of you were prepared. I want to slow down a bit and discuss HOW TO STUDY...and techniques to help you not only prepare for tests and quizzes, but HOW TO TAKE A TEST (or what I prefer calling "SHARING WITH A TEST" - I'll explain this week...).
SO...I am providing you an opportunity.
For those who did not do very well, I will be giving A SECOND TEST on Wednesday over the same material (Pre-Columbian America).
IF you chose to keep your same score, I will give you the same score on the second test (SO...those who studied and have an "A" or "B" or the score they like, you will be rewarded the exact same score). You will also be rewarded for your hard work (doing it right the first time) with a free work day - on anything you need to work on for school!
This is your chance to help your grade....but more importantly, to help you learn how to take tests in the future to help you be successful!!!
This Week...or Next Week:
...if we have time we will move on to (drum roll please)...IN THE NEST - European Exploration [1000-1720]
We will start exploring Europe's Migration to America!
REMEMBER you must have a U.S. CONSTITUTION DAILY. This is not optional....ever!
We will also start learning our First 11 PRESIDENTS - keep going over all their names (first and last). Here's a sheet in case you need another one.
