Week 29
Review of Weeks 19–28
Objective:
The goal of this review is to double-check for understanding of the performance objectives listed in the previous weeks.
Suggested Review Practices:
Students need practice answering multiple choice and free-response questions. Given that you will have covered five additional chapters by now, choose two chapters to review the first day of the week, and three for the second day of this week. For the multiple-choice test, make sure you write at least three questions addressing each performance standard. Students who answer all three correctly typically show mastery of the performance standard. It's important to devise assessments that can be graded quickly and returned to students promptly.
Pacing Guide:
- Review Chapters 14 and 8—day 1
- Review Chapters 16, 17, and 13—day 2
- Multiple-Choice Test—day 3
- Essay Test—day 4
- Review corrected multiple-choice and essay exams—day 5
- Block Scheduling
The review of chapters 14 and 8 should be given one block, as should the review of chapters 16, 17, and 13. Give the multiple-choice and essay exams one block. Review of the exams should take no longer than one half of a block, unless questions arise.
Troubleshooting Tips:
- Explain the concept of aggression from a biological, cognitive, and socio-cultural perspective. What impact do the following have on the exacerbation of aggression: groupthink, classical conditioning, and long-term memory.
- Though there should be at least three multiple-choice questions for each performance standard, you should not limit yourself to three questions if you've spent significantly more time covering a particular performance standard.
