I can hardly believe that we are to the end of June and that next week is the end of the block! 

So it is time to prepare for the post test - remember that the post test is a progress test.

One of the very best practices  you can have is Reviewing

Reviewing is not trying to learn something new in the next few days or hours - it is simply the skill of remembering what you have been learning in the recent past.  Please Please  Please   go back over the skills you have worked with this block, both individually and as a class.  The beautiful thing about the blog is that you can go back to any of our old posts to access the links that I gave you.  I also encourage you to go back over all paper practice that we have done.

Another great practice is to make sure your physical self is as prepared as possible
Get a good night sleep
Eat a good breakfast
These things sound simple but they really do help you do your best.

Test anxiety can be a big hurdle to get over for some students.  I am linking you to a couple of sites to help with this.

It is time for a little review of statistics and probability :)  We have been working with these for a couple of weeks so remember that if you get stuck you can always go back the old posts to practice.
