7th Grade:

• Prennez l'examen: Les Professions !


• Midterm review sheet / Practice writing your sentences. I want 10!!!

8th grade:

• Begin review: Midterm Practice packet/questions/practice writing!!!


• "Pub Trivia" time.

Rules:

Teams of 4 - chosen by me

You may choose a team name and begin writing it on all the little sheets of paper I give you.

There are 4 quarters (like in football) Within each quarter there are 4 challenges.

I will give you the topic of each challenge.

You choose what point value you want to wager on each question: 1, 3, 5, 7 - depending on how confident you are about your responses.

You have a limited amount of time for each question- I keep a tally of the points for each round.

The challenge is not only in answering the questions, but betting strategically based on the topics I give you ahead of time and how much you think you know about them!
