The students had their second science test today. I added a few more questions than the first one, and was able to lower the point value of each question. There were also bonus questions that gave them an opportunity to make some extra points.
In class, we reviewed over the heritage studies study guide. They received them on Tuesday and have had some time in class to work on them. The review day is not for answering the study guide. The students should be working on them the two or three days prior to the review day so that they are able to REVIEW and make sure they have the right answers as we go over it in class. There is not enough class time for them to write all the answers as we review.
I am working on finding a better middle ground for the science study guides and tests. As the following week progresses, they should have an easier time of studying and keeping up with the science material.
The heritage studies tests are tomorrow. I gave the opportunity for the students to come in during recess to make sure they got all that they needed and some of them took advantage of that time.
