During the test

Read the directions.
It’s important that you follow the instructions exactly. For example, some questions may have more than one correct answer.

Answer every question.

Unless there is a penalty for wrong answers, try to answer every question; you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin but don’t complete correctly.

Ask questions.

If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin.

Using the Web Wisely

Thanks to the Web, information is easy to find. However, it’s also easy to post something online. Anyone can do it.

You’ve probably used the Internet to research for a paper, to help you decide which product to buy or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information online is fast and convenient. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust.

Many websites claim to have facts, but are full of errors. Others present information in biased way- they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable source from an unreliable one? Also, it is critical that you post online only that which is descent and appropriate, never anything pornographic, vulgar, indecent, out of taste, untruthful, or obscene. Post those things that will make a good name for you and your organization, that will promote goodwill and be of benefit to the world.

Choose the Right!!

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow”

Robert Kiyosaki

Reflection: I think it’s true that your future depends on the choices you make right now and not tomorrow. The most important time is now, the Present time. The choices you make now will affect everything whether it’s a good decision or a bad one. The choices you made in the past no longer matter or the ones you will make the future. It all depends on the choices you make now because what you do now will soon be future and the past.
