3. Students should begin studying for their 1st 9weeks exam by creating a comprehensive study guide. NOTE: I recommend that students write or type their study guide, although some may wish to to pull information from their notebook and just 'build' a guide.
Study guides should be based on the following:
1.) SAT Vocabulary (Lists 1 and 2), definitions, synonyms/antonyms, related forms, and context clues.
2.) Literary Elements (i.e. plot, setting, theme, characterzation, symbol, allusion, etc.)
3.) Inferencing and Main Idea Identification
4.) Proofreading (specifically subject-verb agreement, run-ons, fragments, and some punctuation.)
PLEASE STUDY...this test could be difficult if you do not prepare for it. STANDARDS [ER2], [EV1]
