7th and 8th Grade ELA Unit 2 Exam

Hi everyone,

We have our Unit 2-Informational Text exam this Wednesday, December 11.  Students will read an informational passage and answer short answer questions and write an essay.  The exam will focus on identifying central idea, analyzing text structure, examining sources, and questioning author's bias.  We have covered these topics in depth and the students have plenty of practice REEC questions in their binders to study with that have similar questions.  Please encourage your student to revise their answers to these questions using our REEC Strategy:

REEC STRATEGY:
How to use evidence in your responses.

R Restate a portion of the question to make sure you’re directly answering the question!

E Evidence from the text is inserted here to support your response.

E Elaborate and explain how your evidence proves your response


C Conclude and sum up your final point before you moved on.

Thanks for your support!
