Test Over North Africa Tomorrow!

Tomorrow, the students will be taking their chapter test over North Africa. This is a major summative grade and will greatly affect their averages. Please make sure your student prepares properly for this test.

I will be out tomorrow so a substitute will be administering the test. Please discuss proper behavior with a substitute with your student.

Below is a "study guide" that I think will be VERY helpful to the students for their test tomorrow. If your student can answer these questions successfully, they will do very well on tomorrow's exam.
