Session 10

Review

We will review the concepts above and take a sort of final test and test the lessons covered previously. You will receive 45 minutes to complete 14 questions (7 multiple-choice + 7 written). The first 15 minutes will be review of any concepts we want to review then we will get straight into the test (if we are done with review early, the additional time can be spent on the assessment). If we have extra time left, we will have some fun with some math games like Gimkit, Kahoot, etc.
