Begin studying for the States, Capitals and Abbreviations test on the West Region (map test) given during the week of May 13th.  This test will be graded and counted towards your Test grade in IC.  There will also be a test given which will recap all the regions (states, capitals and abbreviations) that we have studied so far.  This test will be given on the same day as the West Region map test.  This test will not count towards students' test grades, but will rather be figured into their participation grade.
