8th Grade Test Review

Hello 8th grade,

Here are some things to study for your test on Monday/Tuesday of next week.

Remember, all three vocabulary sheets
(marijuana, house supplies--inhalants/medicines, and alcohol) need to be fully completed and will be collected for an easy 10 pts. prior to your test.


Some things to focus on when studying...
  1. All vocabulary sheets with the terms are fair game
  2. Review your Refusal Skills worksheet and ways to say "No"
  3. Understand the purpose of our in-class activities-- the water/ice activity relating to marijuana and the Dysfunctional Family Role Play... can you explain them?
