Posted below are the correct procedures for doing test corrections. Please read carefully some of the steps have changed.
How do I do
Test Corrections?
For science
unit tests (and occasionally other major tests), students will have the
opportunity to make test corrections to regain a maximum of HALF of the points
missed on the test. Here is the required
format in order to get credit:
1. Test corrections should be hand written by
the student on clean notebook paper (no ragged edges, must be 8-1/2 x 11 paper)
and should be written neatly. If I can't
read it, there is no credit awarded.
2. Write the number of the problem from the
test. (If the first problem you missed
was #5, then your test correction page begins with #5.)
3. Re-write the question.
4. Answer the question correctly.
