Test Your Mettle

Quizzes, tests, labs, and assignments offer the opportunity to apply what you know and to evaluate what topics you need to study further.  They are tools that your teacher uses to evaluate and document what you have learned, and to identify misconceptions and important gaps in your knowledge, which can be addressed by additional teaching.

Quiz

The teacher will choose three or more quizzes to use as summative assessment for student mastery.
