Year End Exam Week

By , About.com Guide

My daughter, Julee, came up with this review testing for her final week of school. I think it's a good idea and a nice way to finish out the year and have the student reflect on what he/she has been studying all semester.

Using Julee's example, it should be easy to come up with a week of final exams for your kids.
