in the formal sense, and you will be allowed to bring in review notes/a “study sheet” to help you.
Study Sheet Guidelines
-Up to 4 sides (2 pages) of regular 8.5x11 paper
-Can be hand-written or typed

-Teacher will verify to make sure that no specifics (linked to the case study) are present on the page.
You will have one class period to complete the case study. You will not be allowed to take it home or to work
on it or finish it at a different time.
Studying Tips
1. Make sure that you have all the class notes and worksheets. Check course blog:
http://www.archbishopcarney.org/blogs/ce10-cr/ or the CE 10 pink-labeled bin by the classroom door
if you are missing something. Make sure to get all the “blanks” filled in on the notes.
2. Complete the review questions and define the vocabulary words
3. Making a study guide for the first two sections will be useful for the 3 rd section as a study sheet.
4. If you need clarification on a concept, see Miss Riglietti for extra help.
Re-Writes
If you would like to re-write the test, you must show evidence that you have prepared for the re-write.
Therefore, you must (at minimum), come to tutorial and complete this entire review, in your own words.
If you are going to miss the test, you must turn in a note from your parents stating that they know you have
missed a test. After you present the note you will be able to make up the test.
