Just a friendly reminder that students have two tests tomorrow.
In the morning, students will take their multiplication test. We spent the morning today reviewing for the test, and I am sending home a copy of those review questions tonight for students to look back over and practice. This is a great study resource for students. If they can answer these questions, they will be in great shape for tomorrow’s test.
Tomorrow afternoon, students will take their Core Democratic Values (CDV) test. We will be completing a review in class today, but they should also use the resources in their green folder, especially the study sheet I sent home on Friday, to help them study. They are responsible for:
- The definition of all ten CDVs
- Being able to explain how people can have different opinions on a U.S. policy (importance of recycling, restricting fishing in certain areas of the oceans, or protecting endangered species)
- Knowing the difference between and examples of a right (freedom granted by the government) and a responsibility (duty as a citizen)
- Knowing that rights have limits. For example, you have the right to gather in groups, but you must remain peaceful
- Describing 3 ways that citizens work together in a community
