END OF WEEK # 6 - Sept. 24 / Weekend

The long awaited MAP TEST was presented this week. Although students had a total of 5 weeks to prepare for this pop test, the overall results, particularly for the 7th graders, was not very good. As a result, Test has been reaccessed, scores recalculated and grading scale changed. Students will now have only one opportunity to improve their final scores. This will remain a Pop Test to be given sometime before the 1st Qt. is up. Test is now valued at 68 pts. (2pts. per country) with an additional Bonus of 2 pts. for those who achieve a perfect score. I encourage students to learn the location of these Latin American countries and others, not just to study for the test. The Objective here is for them to actually learn the content and not forget it. Students will eventually have to learn the capitals of these countries in the 2nd Qt. and prepare a Power Point report on the Latin American country of their choice in their 4th Qt. We will continue to dwell into some of the cultural aspects of the people who speak the language as we learn to speak or understand it.
