It's time to start studying for your FINAL!!

Can you believe it's already time to start studying for your final?!

Every week you need to complete at least 1 test in Acuity.  You will see the tests assigned to you when you log in at https://acuityeast.ctb.com .  Complete the tests in order.  You must use pencil and paper and you are NOT allowed to use a calculator.  Remember, the purpose of completing these tests is to prepare for the Algebra final you will take on May 6th. You will only be allowed paper and pencil at this time.

When taking these tests, provide yourself with plenty of time to complete the test.  Each test should take no more than an hour.  Provide yourself with a quiet space where you can focus and do your best work.  You do not need to email your results - I will be able to see all test results in Acuity. 

8-Black: You need to complete 2 tests per week to receive a complete homework grade.

8-Purple and Silver: You need to complete at least 1 test per week to receive a complete homework grade.

Your score on the Algebra final you take in Acuity on May 6th will be sent to your future high school.  They will use this test result to determine your class placement.  In addition, your score will count as your Algebra final grade for the third trimester in my class.  It is extremely important that you are prepared and do your best!

Other ways to study in the next few weeks: 
*Complete all the chapter tests at http://glencoe.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0078884861/student_view0/.
*Review all your chapter tests and quizzes you have taken this year.
