7a and 10 HW - Flashcard practice

Today in class we worked in groups to combine our flashcards into a group set of 10 different terms, 10 different events (people, places, inventions, etc. ) in a shared google doc.

Tonight, start to study details from other chapter flashcard sets.
Your goal by Friday is to answer 40 different flashcard questions correctly from the four other assigned chapters in class.

Each day, students will quiz students from other chapter groups, and report the number of questions the student answered correctly. A student can earn a maximum of 10 points from one person's flashcards. Once a person takes a flashcard quiz, they receive their score on a tracking sheet, then they reciprocate and quiz that person with their flashcards, then give them a score.

Students that answer 40 different questions correctly in one day, 10 from each chapter besides their own, will earn a maximum grade of a 20, each question worth a 1/2 a point.

So, study information from the shared chapter questions here:

Chapter 2 - Core 1 and  Period 3
Chapter 3 - Core 1 and  Period 3
Chapter 4 - Core 1 and  Period 3
Chapter 5 - Core 1 and  Period 3
Chapter 6 - Core 1 and  Period 3
