Test on Chapter 6 probably on Monday, February 27. My test.
We are reworking the History. There are very few Bela Tests until chapter 10, as a result I will not be concentrating on the studying of every bolded word and everything in italics. We will be more interested in the overall content and the big picture significance of each paragraph. Answers on quizzes will be geared more towards application, synthesis, comprehension and analysis.
