Self Evaluation and Reflection:
My students did very well on the test. 21 of the 24 completed tests had an
80% or higher score. The test I used was made by Mr. Van Slyke, and already
had accommodations. This made the test easier, but I was still proud of my
students for being thorough about their work to make sure they had the right
answer. I also think the Jeopardy review game was helpful because students
saw the information on the test the day before they took it.
