Test Corrections:

Get a copy of your test from Mr. Peck, he will go over what you need to fix with you

Correct each wrong answer

Cite Key Concepts and/or Vocabulary terms for each correction (Mr. Peck will let you know where to find the key concepts)

You will earn half of the lost credit back

You have until the next unit test to finish corrections
