After the Unit Test: – Turn your test into the ‘to be graded bin’ by the windows (make sure your name is on the test!) – Did you turn in all unit classwork…including the poster activity?! – Take the packet titled ‘Adolescent Medical History Form’ next to the bin: It is important that you do not put your name on the worksheet.
