EXAMS
To pass your EOC you must do the following:
READ EVERYTHING.
Skimming is bad. Most of the students in the past who have failed saidthat they skimmed and did not read everything. YOU HAVE TO READEVERYTHING! Charts, captions, introductions, everything.

Practice reading at home. It helps. Paraphrase the central meaning ofwhatever you read. Even if it's an article about Hanna Montana or MileyCirus or whatever she is calling herself now.

STUDY
I will be sending home work for you to study with. Study now, January 11th is too late to begin.
