While Ms. Francoeur was away at conferences students were supposed to complete a study guide as well as the Chapter 3 test. There have been some incidents brought to my attention where students have either (1) not chosen to complete the study guide and use their notes instead - which was clearly outlined as not permissable - or (2) students have been "sharing" study guides - either letting friends copy without doing the work, or passing off their study guides to friends after they already took the test. In order to keep this from happening again, and to encourage students to take a more active role in their learning, some changes for the next chapter (chapter 4 - the American Revolution) were announced today.
1. Notes for students will be much less detailed to encourage students to practice reading for information skills and studying on a more frequent basis.
2. Notes and study guides will not be allowed on the test - studying is required.
3. For this chapter, students will also have individual presentations to complete. Requirements and topic choices were distributed today. These presentations will offer students the opportunity to further research one of the many important people, battles, or documents covered in this chapter.
Also today we went through the main ideas of Chapter 4, Section 1
Assignment: Read Section 1 (p. 112-116) and answer the assessment questions 1-4 on p. 116. Start looking over topics you are interested in - topic choosing is on Friday - names will be drawn in random order.

We also discussed and worked a little more with plot order (chronological & flashback) as well as foreshadowing.

Since there has been a continuing trend of students not studying for math tests, rather waiting until the test to ask questions about how to solve problems they do not understand, a few changes to Math Tests are being made. Today marks the last day students will be able to make corrections to a test or quiz in Applied Math. Students will still be given study guides that they will be able to use on the tests, so it would benefit students to use these study guides not only as a practice test, but as a place to note explanations for solutions.
