Today we finished the chapter review pages in our textbook and in our workbook. This took most of our time, but we did have a discussion about answering questions completely and answering what the question is asking. I put the page numbers on the board to help the students get to the right section for the answers but sometimes their answer and the question just didn't go together!
I have prepared a study guide that has everything that will be on the first chapter test. We are planning on having that test Friday. The students chose this day because they have a math test on Thursday.
Tomorrow is a DARE day for us. We will spend Thursday reviewing.
Here is the study guide:
