Today, I gave you an overview of the reading comprehension exam (multiple choice) that you will be writing on Wednesday of this week. Keep in mind: if you know you are going to miss this exam, contact me in advance for an alternate time; if you miss it without notifying me first, you will write an alternative exam.
The information I presented you with today gives specifics about the exam (number of readings, questions, and marking expectations). I have put a copy of this information in your portfolio.
There are a couple of changes to the marking: The multiple choice questions are worth 48 points and the marks for meeting the time expectations add up to 2.
I also gave you a handout (blue) on how to answer multiple choice questions (using process of elimination). Most of you are already familiar with this approach: this was just a refresher. I also went over some of the meanings of terms often seen in the stem of multiple choice questions. If you were not here, you will have to define them on your own.
