Unit 1 Review

Unit 1 Review

Use this lesson to review for your Science Unit 1 TEST.

Directions:

Uses this Review to help you study for your first Science Test. The test will be on Tuesday, September 29th. Traditional students will take it while you are at school with me. Remote learners, the test will open up for you on Tuesday around 8:00. You will only have one chance to take this. If you open up the quiz and close it without completing it, you may not be able to finish. Science is non-fiction. There's no way for you to be able to "memorize" all of the material we have covered, so when you take your test next week be wise and USE YOUR RESOURCES!

REMEMBER:

This is just a review. You will have multiple choice, ordering, and short answer questions on your test. I am leaving all of Unit 1 (Weeks 2-4) folders open for you in case you need to go back to any section and review your lessons. SO, if there were questions on this review that you were unsure of, take these next few days to go back and look over things.
