All of my Science students are given the opportunity to turn in test corrections to receive credit for half of the points for each question they missed. The test corrections must be written on notebook paper and stapled to the original test. The corrections must include the entire question (not just the number) and the entire answer (not just the letter) to receive half of the points for each question missed. I have added many STAAR Reviews and Vocabulary quizlet sets to my class Quizlet. Please have your child practice as review and preparation for the Science STAAR test in the spring.
