Readiness Test

The students brought home a Math Readiness test last night. Some of the students were really worried because they didn't already know the material. I told them to think of it as a spelling pretest. They weren't going to be graded on them. It was to show what they already know. I had them take it home and correct any items they missed by using their books and resources at home. There was some confusion from a few students because they weren't paying attention during the five explanations I gave them throughout the day. Don't worry if they didn't know all the material yet, they will very soon.
