DUE Friday, 3/30: Chapter 31 Online Exam

Your Chapter 31 Castle Learning test closes at 7 pm on Friday, 3/30.  This gives you 4 days on school computers & a day at home (or 3 days, if you can't this weekend, but see my advice below.)  And yes, I know we're off on the due date, but that's the beauty of online exams.

First try only counts.  Test is timed, so be sure you have 50 minutes to spend taking the test before you open it.  No make-ups since it is online.  If you don't finish (run out of time, deadline locks it, etc.), anything unanswered is wrong, just like if you left it blank in class.  If you have a Resource period I am aware of, your test is timed but time was extended based on your mods.  Remember, once you open the test, time starts & cannot be "paused."  If you are new to the class (this week) - you are still taking the test to show me your current level of knowledge from your last school.  Quizlet for this exam was opened last week.

While the test is open  as of this post, I suggest you wait until:
1. You have finished the Chapter 30 Exam
2. Study before opening the exam.
3. We finish most of Chapter 31 (which I think we'll do Monday, with us actually finishing the chapter Tuesday sometime.
