Today we talked about your Unit 4 Tests; Several of you did not take this test seriously and your grade reflects this. In each class we discussed your tests and really what it came down to is this:
It is because of the issues above that the vast majority of you struggled and failed. I am very disappointed in your effort for this past unit and I expect you to change your study habits and effort for this upcoming unit.
As far as the test goes, I gave you a 2nd chance today----- this will not happen again. You were allowed test corrections for 1/2 points back due at the end of class. Please make sure that you are doing your readings, using your study guide, tutor times etc. in the future and have a great weekend :)
1. You had 3 weeks with your review and waited until a day or 2 before the test to start working on it. I mentioned daily in class to get started on your reviews AND posted about it on the blog as well.
2. You used google as a source for your answers instead of the book (which I warned you about)
3. NOBODY came in during any of my tutor times to work on reviews, ask questions about the reviews, check answers etc.
4. I gave you about 35 minutes last Friday to work on your reviews- several of you chose to work on other homework, talk with friends, play on your phones etc.
