Unit A: Chapter 3 Test Guide

Test Dates:
5E: Wednesday, November 4, 2009
5F: Thursday, November 5, 2009

There will be 9 “Word Power” (matching—terms) problems.
-Know ALL of the definitions of the Unit A: Chapter 3 terms--Look at the front of your packet (1 point each)

There will be 1 “Short Answer” question:
-What is the job of the kidneys?--Look at your notes (2 points)

There will be 2 “Problem-Solving” questions
-Label the 4 chambers (right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle) of the heart (4 points)
-Know where the blood travels in the heart/lungs/body (i.e. Blood that needs oxygen and needs to get rid of waste enters the right atrium, is sent to the right ventricle, and then is sent to the lungs.  Oxygen-rich blood that just got back from the lungs enters the left atrium and then is sent to the left ventricle and then the body). (4 points)

There will be 19 points possible.

Study your notes, terms, packet, and re-read/skim the chapter if necessary.   I recommend making flashcards.

EDLINE INFORMATION
We hope you and your child have been able to successfully access Edline. It is meant to not only give you easy access to your child's grades, but to be more "green" and save paper. Because all grades are posted on Edline now, we will not be sending home individual progress reports for each student. However, when a student's grade falls to a C- or lower, we will send home a progress report. This also applies if a behavior or work habit grade falls to an NI (Needs Improvement). Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Upcoming Dates:
March 5, 2010--5th Grade First Friday Mass
March 7, 2010--5th Grade Sunday Mass
