Test Review/Civics End of Course Exam
What to Know
The Civics EOC is one of our major focuses of the school year for the 7th graders in Social Studies. This exam counts as 30% of the students overall year grade. While we will be spending every minute of class time learning and preparing for this test, it is vital for student success that the skills and information we will be covering this year are practiced at home. Below are several of the most popular links that we as a school have used in the past to help ensure student success. (Content Review pdf's located at the bottom of the page)
Google Classroom Data Chats: Student progression data on their quarterly assessments can be found here. These are a great resource to use to see where students are lacking success in Civics. The links below can help students improve many of the areas of struggle.
Starred links below are the most important and helpful resources a student can use to prepare for the EOC. These should be used in concert with the Data Chat sheets to help ensure success on the EOC.
Practice Test: http://civics360.org/ You will need to create an account through the website to take the practice test. When you complete the test it will give you a print out of your score and how you did on each benchmark. You can then use this information to focus your review to the standards and benchmarks you struggled with to turn those into strengths.
