WWII Test studying!

The WWII Test is Wednesday, 3/11 during class.  The class will review or study during class time Tuesday, 3/11, and then take the test while the info is fresh in your mind! All Tests are 100% based on class notes and discussions.  The notes are based on the book "The Americans" Chapter 24 and 25 and other sources.  Text links given each day.

There are 35 multiple choice questions worth 80 points total.  There are 4 open response (Short Answer questions) worth 20 points total.  Short Answer Question Rubric is attached to the google classroom separately.  For multiple choice, choose the best answer!  If you need to, eliminate wrong answers to find the best answer!  For open response, write a logical response to the question using a specific historical example discussed in our class to prove you know.

Cheating in any form is prohibited.  This test judges what you know on test day.  Test corrections will be allowed after grading is complete, so no need to cheat or plagiarize anyway!  Also, the availability of test corrections should decrease the test anxiety!  Once the test is graded, Mr. Cook will "release the grade and comments", and you will be sent an email (from google forms which gives feedback on manually entered point deductions).  Mr. Cook will also tell the students that the email has been sent in class once they are all done.  To prepare for a potential test corrections, at that point students should study the released test and see Mr. Cook at an appropriate time for studying help also as Multiple Choice questions do not offer feedback.   Multiple choice and open response questions are based on notes but also on the course essential questions below! When studying on your own, try to come up with everything they know for each essential question pertaining to our recently studied WWII unit.
