Unit Q Test & Spring Break Requirements


UNIT Q TEST (Wed-Fri April 2nd-4th) - must sign up for partner here
*Sign-ups will be accepted until Monday, March 31st at 4pm.  Then Mrs. Kirch will adjust and modify as needed.

The Unit Q Test will be a partner test and will span multiple days.  It will be fully open note/open resource but can only be worked on in Mrs. Kirch physical classroom at the times listed below.  

If the requirements below are not 100% clear, please ask me ASAP so I can clarify and edit this post accordingly.
  1. Pick a partner.  This partner must have a percentage +/- 5% from your current percentage, or you must get Mrs. Kirch's approval.
  2. You will be able to work on the test in Mrs. Kirch's class only during the following times:
    1. Tuesday 4/1 - 7am, 3-3:30pm
    2. Tuesday 4/1 (Europe & 8th grade orientation students only) -seminar, either lunch
    3. Wednesday 4/2 - 7am, either lunch, 3-3:30pm
    4. Wednesday 4/2 (Europe & 8th grade orientation students only) - seminar
    5. Wednesday 4/2 - CLASS TIME only if both partners have fully finished PQs 1-5
    6. Thursday 4/3 - 7am, either lunch, CLASS TIME, 3-3:30pm
    7. Friday 4/4 - 7am, CLASS TIME
  3. You may only work on the test WITH your partner.  Meaning, you cannot work on it if your partner is not there.
  4. In years past, students have spent between 1.5 hours and 8 hours on this exam.  However, in the past, it has been an individual test.  It can be time consuming so please plan ahead.
  5. Tests are due at the end of your class period on Friday.  No exceptions - I am leaving for Spring Break vacation immediately after school Friday.
  6. Expectations and information on the front of the Unit Q test (in regards to what you can use) are in effect EXCEPT that it is not take- home and you MAY collaborate with your ONE partner.  If you would like to view the front page of your Unit Q Test before beginning, please just stop by anytime and I will show it to you.
