We’ve been working really hard and you have been awesome during this chapter. So, it’s time to show off just how much you have learned!

The Chapter 8 Test will be taken on your Block Day. To prepare make sure you review all of the worksheets we have completed for this chapter. Look at the True/False worksheets, the study guides, the fill-in-the-blank activities, and anything else you come across in your binder.

The Test will be 50 questions: 35 multiple-choice and 15 True/False.

One last thing, the answers to the FIRST three questions on the test are: “D,” “B,” A.” Man, how awesome am I to just give away answers?

Happy History!
