Finishing up the grading period

Last week CUBE took a prominent place in your test taking skills vocabulary. Remember to use this skill for all tests including the FCAT.

C - Circle unfamiliar words or vocabulary

U - Underline important content

B - Box the question that you have to answer

E - Eliminate the incorrect responses and take a moment to Explain why the response you chose is the correct response.

Thursday and Friday found us revisiting the layers of the atmosphere and having a class debate about which layer of the atmosphere is the best layer. 

Monday and Tuesday were Plate Tectonics review days. Not only a review lesson, but also a quiz about plate tectonics. 

FCAT Review lesson notes were collected. Each person was responsible for submitting notes for 2 review lessons. 

Your CGA score will be posted to the CGA/FCAT review section of the gradebook. 

All LATE FCAT Explorer reports will be posted. Your score is penalized 10% for being late. 

The bonus points will be posted. You will earn a point for each time you participated in the Tournament Earth 2014.
