Math Test

Our unit 9 math test and pretest will be coming home tonight in the SPACE folders.  The purple test was the pretest taken prior to starting the unit, and the white one is the final test we took yesterday after finishing unit 9.  The circled problems labeled RSA are the problems in which were graded on the test.  These were the problems that we learned how to solve in unit 9 and were ready to be tested on.  

After we put our scores into our data folders, we took a few minutes to do something new with our test.  In addition to going over the test, we looked at the problems we missed and decided if it was a S or a NP.  An S is a silly mistake, maybe we knew how to do it and wrote down the wrong answer.  It could also be that we did not pay attention to the directions!  A NP is a need to practice.  This would be something we do not understand how to do still and need to practice some more.

If you have any questions, please let me know.  I am hoping that through doing this, students will learn to be more observant of what they are doing in the tests and have the opportunity to reflect on the growth they made from the pretest to the final test!
