Test on the Horizon

Greetings,

The test over Chapter 3, The World's People,  will be given on Monday, December 16.  I am hoping the kids will be able to take the test on a computer, but if not, we will do it "the old fashioned" way, with a pencil.  If we take it on the computer, the kids will see one question at a time, choose their (correct) answer, and move on to the next question.  They will be able to go back and check/change answers, and when they are done they will submit their answers and immediately get their grade.  It is "instant" feedback.

We have been doing multiple activities to get into the book and really "know" the information.  Today's assignment is "The World's People" booklet page 18-Section 3 Daily Quiz and the Vocabulary Activity on page 7(which is immediately after page 18; don't ask!). Page numbers are required with each page, to once again get the kids to read/re-read the information. This work is due Friday, December 13.

It is heartening to hear the kids say that they know the answer without looking in the book, however, I still want page numbers with answers so I know they are once again using the learning tools available to them.  We will correct these pages tomorrow, which will give the kids a "study guide" for the test.

So, once again, the following assignments are due Friday, December 13:
Page 18-Daily Quiz Section 3 
Page 7- Vocabulary Activity(covers entire chapter)
Both assignments are in the "The World's People" booklet

Thanks,
Cathy
