Exams

Our exams start on Monday January 27^th- January 30^th this year. We are starting with Science on the 27^th, E.L.A on the 28^th, Math on the 29^th and Social Studies on the 30^th.  All of the Exams start at 9:00 AM and end in a couple of hours depending on the subject.

          For science we were given an outline saying that the fluids unit and cells unit are the ones that make up the main exam. The introductory unit doesn’t play a big role but it has about 10-15% of the exam. In social studies we were given a rough outline but were told that it is put together like our tests. This exam will consist of multiple choice, matching, short answer, fill in the blanks, true or false, and two articles to read and answer the questions. THE 10 MARKERS OF CIVILIZATION WILL BE ON THE EXAM!! There will not be a word bank. In math we are going to need to know how to add/sub/mult/divide mixed numbers and fractions we will need to review square roots, Pythagorean Relationship, (also know how to spell hypotenuse and Pythagorean) how to find surface area and volume. The exam will consist of multiple choice, short answer and long answer. In E.L.A we are to know most of the authors for the stories/poems we read as well as essay parts/formats, vocabulary, parts of speech, types of poetry etc.
