Caravan review moved to 5:30 on Monday - email to let me know whether or not you are coming

The Biology EOC review has been moved to 5:30 on Monday Jan. 19th.  If no one is there at 5:30 I will be heading home.

It will still be at the Caravan coffee shop in downtown Belmont, so while my tutoring is free, it is a place of business so please be courteous and bring a few dollars to purchase a beverage while you are there.

Also, please bring: the EOC review material I gave you during class, a pencil and some paper.

Please email me to let me know whether or not you plan to attend.
ckbradley@gaston.k12.nc.us

I will check before I head over, if no one  has responded by 5:00 I will not come.

Regents test prep:  go through the multiple choice questions that apply to our curriculum


click on the zebra once you get there then look for the multiple choice tab to the right and click on it to get a menu of items to review on.  You can also review each topic by clicking on the picture.

We don't cover all of the topics that NY does, so only review what applies to you.

They should know their entire white sheet by heart- it will be a replacement grade for them if they do it before starting the  EOC!


This packet has all the review information you need plus some questions at the end of each section to help you check your knowledge.
