Entry Tickets vs. Tests

Entry tickets (Formative Assessments) are given after studying a learning target. They provide feedback and help you know if your learning strategies are working. They are an opportunity to know where you are before you take a test. Entry tickets get replaced by tests. They do not stay in the gradebook.

Test results (Summative Assessments) replace your entry ticket scores.

* One of the most valuable things you can do before Friday's test is to look at PowerSchool's Unit 2 Formative Assessment scores. For those Unit 2 Scores < 3, spend extra time reviewing the notes, CYUQs, etc.

Distance: an amount of space between two things

Direction: a course along which someone or something moves

Today you will receive the graphic organizer:

Complete each box by adding notes, examples, and annotations (notes that explain what is happening in your examples). Refer to your notes, CYUqs, entry tickets, vertical collaboration, Google Search, etc. Work together. Help each other.

You may use the notes you make on this graphic organizer during the test (nothing else).
