TESTS

            Unit tests will range in value from 50-100 points.  Ideally, we will have 2 tests (two units) per 6 weeks, but this does not always pan out because of the myriad of interruptions our school day experiences. 
            Test format is usually comprised of a variety of questions.  Multiple choice, matching, diagram labeling, sequencing (such as the flow of blood through the heart), short answer, and essay.  Some tests will also include lab practical questions, with samples of items studied stationed around the room accompanied by associated questions.
