Studying for Math Tests

This week in 7th grade Life Skills we are talking about how to study for math tests (we will go through each subject over the next month).  Here's what we came up with (in no particular order):

• See your teacher for review - in tutorial or after school
• Complete teacher review problems or games
• Read over your notes
• Complete the unit review in your textbook
• Go over old tests or quizzes.  Re-do problems that you got incorrect the first time
• Talk through steps to solve problems with a parent or friend
• Make practice problems with a friend
• Ask parents or older siblings to review with you.  Have them create a practice test
• Work out real-life examples
• Use flashcards for memorizing things like formulas, equivalent forms of numbers, etc
• Use online worksheets (Google the topic and worksheet or use a site from below)
• mathisfun.com
• Khan Academy - examples
• coolmath.com
• Watch math videos
• Khan Academy - videos
• Teacher Tube
• YouTube - math topic
• Read online lessons
• purplemath.com
• mathisfun.com

Remember to email me with any other ideas you come up with and I will add them to our list!
