Role of Church Study Prep for Assessment
Hello! Today students reviewed the 8 vocabulary words found on the test by working with "houses" and grouping words together which have connections. Grouping words together to understand relationships between them is an important aid in learning vocabulary. Students were able to work on the reading and the reading notes for a large chunk of class today and much content was discussed. Students were also provided the content topics for the test. Refer to previous announcements for other study tools including the monster study stack! Reminder....the reading notes are designed to help in understanding of the text, not necessarily the specific questions on the tests. Students will be given about 30 minutes to study for the test tomorrow, some of which will be whole class review.
