Hello Parents,
Your students began receiving the study guide (click here) earlier this week. We will be highlighting some specific things from the study guide in class.
It is NOT a study guide where they fill in the blanks and those questions wind up on the test....it IS a study guide where they can read about some of the things that might be tested.
The students will be selecting one topic from each unit that they definitely want on the Mid-Term....I tally the results and let them know what those topics will be. Then I select several topics from each unit that they definitely need to review (core concepts) for the Mid-Term. Finally, all the material from the study guides is fair game...but it won't all be on the test.
Students need to focus their preparation on two things: The topics that they choose from each unit, and the topics that I tell them specifically will be on the test.
Thanks, Mr. Finke
