Next Friday, your child will have a social studies test on the South Carolina regions. We have been learning about these regions in a variety of ways. We have taken notes, we have worked with maps, and we have looked a pictures from each region. Look below for tips on how to prepare for this test.
Test Tips
- Your child should have a social studies notebook. We write notes in this, we glue maps, and we place essentially anything related to what we are learning in this notebook. Your child will be encouraged to take this notebook home daily.
- Our textbook is helpful. However, please view this as a supplement to our learning. The notebook will have a more condensed version of what was learned. However, it is still good to look through for clarication.
- Use Study Stack for a review. We will visit this website in class, but you can support at home with a few minutes a day.
- I will provide a Study Buddy for your child to use as a guide of what this test will assess. It is a broad set of terms that is needed.
