The students that review with a parent and bring a signed slip indicating that you helped your child review , will receive 5 bonus points on the test. (If you have never reviewed any of the lessons with your child, it would be good to check to see if they know the words from the previous lessons. If not, work with them , a few words at a time. The students who have reviewed with a parent in the preceding tests, always do much better. Eighty percent of their quarter grade is based on their tests and 20 percent on their class attention, participation and cooperation.)
