Testing...One, Two, Three...

The students in Room 503 have a lot going on in the next week as our first quarter is coming to a close: A Vocabulary test this Thursday, followed by a Social Studies exam on Friday. Then, next Tuesday, students will take their Science test.

Each subject area has been, and will be, given ample review time in class. Because we continue to practice cumulative "quizzes" during our Finally it's Friday groups, students should be fairly up to speed in each of the aforementioned subjects.

The Vocabulary test will be a straight definition test, and students will be requested to use each word in a sentence to demonstrate clear knowledge of each word's meaning.

The Social Studies and Science exams will consist of multiple choice, true and false questions and fill-in-the-blanks.

Today, each student filled out a self-evaluation form, allowing them to assess their work thus far. This is a helpful tool as it allows Mrs. Veenstra and I to check in and see if the students and ourselves are on the "same page" with one another.

Next week, progress reports will be written and sent out over fall break.

Me thinks there will be a whole lotta studying in the coming days!

Cheers,
Ms. Pitman
