This week is our first Social Studies Chapter exam. There is quite a bit of material covered in Chapter 1. The students have taken notes on each lesson, created vocabulary cards, and answered chapter review questions. These are the study materials they should be using to prepare for the exam. In addition, they will get a Take Home Quiz on Monday night. They may use their textbook for this assignment. It is an extra way for them to study as they look back through the chapter for the answers. It counts as a quiz grade.
