23. Preparing for Tutorials #2 At home, students complete side 1 of the AVID Tutorial Sheet which includes two higher level questions from their academic classes, Cornell notes, homework, class work, quizzes, or tests Question #1 Question #2

24. Developing Level 2 & 3 Questions #2 Questions for tutorials should be level 2 or 3 questions. Level 2 or 3 questions are not required for math. Hint: If the questions can be answered simply by looking in your book or your notes, it is probably a level 1 question. You may use the following handout for help developing level 2 & 3 questions.
