These questions are used as quizzes. These questions are also 1/3 of the questions for the objective part of the Exam that ends Unit 1, with the other 2/3rds coming from the two other quizzes in this Unit.
These questions are from Chapters 3 and 4. You will find the information spread throughout these chapters (with a few additional facts) in an easier-to-use table provided in the Resources for this Reading Quiz.
Add tip dame school not inindex. Add c4 Education in the British Colonies.
Good kid (and I
hope by now you know I mean that), you are working inefficiently. Two ways to
do this:
1. Resources
link (right underneath the list of all possible questions) - The instructions at the top of the list of all possible questions tells
you to go there. It says: These questions are from Chapters 3 and 4. You will
find the information spread throughout these chapters (with a few additional
facts) in an easier-to-use table provided in the Resources for this
Reading Quiz.
That table is an
easier place to spot dame school. Dame school is in Chapter 4 under
Education in the British Colonies, but it is not in the index for this version
so I will need to add a tip on that to the reading quiz questions for the next
group
2. Index at the
back of the book--the traditional way to figure things out and it WORKS.
Your prof says something and you didn't get it; you jot down in your notes what
you did get and those words you use in the index to find out the meaning. The
same thing is true of work when you don't understand. You jot down what you did
get and you use thewords to search the work
instruction or perhaps a technical document to find them. If you have a digital
work instruction or document, you can search with Find.
I have bolded
in the question below some NATURAL things to use in the index. If you used ANY
of them, you'd go right to the spot for most of the facts covered in this questions. These questions are to help you know what to
READ and what to look for when you read.
If you had used
any of those bolded words they would have taken you to pages within Chapter 4 The Great Awakening.
