7th Grade Unit 1 Test
Study Guide
The
test will consist of a passage that students will read followed by
comprehension questions and about the story and the literary elements. There
will be words from the passage with latin roots, prefixes and suffixes to
identify. Finally, there will be a grammar portion to the test involving
correct punctuation and pronoun-antecedent agreement.
I’ve
included page numbers to where these items could be found in the textbook. This
is for reference only, and should not be the only pages that students should
study. Students should also use their notes from the interactive handbook.
