Bella told me she did not study for this test. Her score of 82% was based on remembering what we covered in prior classes and that she asked me a lot of questions while she was taking the test. I'm always accessible and happy to answer questions while a student is taking a test. With adequate preparation, Bella could have scored well above a B- on this test. We are now beginning a unit on the Civil War - an extremely somber and complex time in American History.
