Review for Reading Exam

There will be 30 multiple choice questions, and 2 short answers.

Review the reading terms: If you're not sure what these are, check the notes we took the first week. (On this blog, go up to the white search bar on the upper right, and type in "terms" - and it will pull up the terms powerpoint we did during that first week. Look through those a few times.) Another place you can find the notes: You can click on the Warm Ups link above, and look at Monday's and Tuesday's warm ups.

Review how to write an SAR: If you type "SAR" into the search bar, you will find some reminders I posted about writing SAR's on Sept 21. Read those. Click here for a copy of the SAR rubric.

On the board 9/21/15
You received your first SAR for "Everyday Use" back today. It is scored according to the EOC rubric, but it is not in the gradebook. It is for practice. You have comments written on it. Please look over these comments and let me know if you have questions. Once you've reviewed the feedback, proceed to your second SAR for "Everyday Use."

Here are the options for SAR #2:

On the board 9/21/15
