Students earning a minimum of 70% on College Reading Test - Form B and have a minimum grade of "C" in class will NOT be required to take the mid-term exam, as scheduled.
Students who have passed College Reading Test --- Form B may use the time allotted for the mid-term to improve their overall score in class in one of two ways:
- Re-take a mini assessment
- Go online at townsendpress.net and complete any missing or incomplete assignments in Chapters 1 - 7.
The final assessment consists of 40 multiple- choice comprehension questions that test four major competencies:
- author's message
- structural relationships
- language
- reasoning.
- recognizing main ideas
- identifying supporting details
- determining an author’s purpose.
- opportunities for identifying organizational patterns
- relationships within a sentence
- relationships between sentences.
- determining meanings of words or phrases in context
- detecting bias
- recognizing tone.
- distinguishing between fact and opinion
- drawing logical inferences and conclusions
- evaluating reasoning.
Students who are unable to complete College Test B BEFORE your scheduled mid-term exam, will take College Test C the day of the mid-term.
Students needing extra time to complete College Test C must see me (in person) no later than the day of your scheduled mid-term to discuss your options.
Grades will be finalized by 10PM Sunday, January 13th for TP Online. It is therefore the responsibility of the student to
- copy your portfolio
- turn in your portfolio (slide under the door in the morning)
