Final Exam

Final Exam Week Schedule

Our final exam is here!  Here are a few reminders about the week.  Below you will see our exam schedule.  Please make sure that you arrive at our exam ON TIME!   If you would like to have additional help, I will be at school every morning at 7:00am.  Our first exam does not begin until 9:30, so that would give you lots of time to check in.  You do not have to arrive at the beginning of the help session and you do not have to stay until the end.  This is an informal help session.  I would be more than happy to answer last minute questions at this time.  If I am not in my classroom, please check computer lab 300 as I might be helping some of my programming students.


What's On the Exam?

You are required to take the following 4 sections:
Learning Target 1g: I can prove theorems about similar triangles and their properties. (Triangle similarity shortcuts: SSS similarity, SAS similarity, AA similarity)Learning Target 3d: I can solve right triangles. (Special Right Triangles and right triangle trig: SOH, CAH, TOA)
Learning Target 3c: I can compute, solve and analyze geometric shapes and measure.  (Area)
Learning Target 3g: I can use volume formulas to solve problems. (Volume)You must also complete 2 additional sections.  Please check Infinite Campus to see which sections in which you would like to improve your grade.  Please remember that a grade of "IE" in two or more learning targets means that you will need to repeat the course.


What Should I Bring to the Exam?

For the exam, be sure to bring something to write with, a calculator, and your "cheat sheet".  This cheat sheet can be a standard 8 1/2" by 11" piece of paper that includes formulas, sample problems....just about anything that you want.  Your cheat sheet must be handwritten and will be turned in at the end of your exam period.  You should also bring something to do for after the exam.
