Physical Science
Study Tip of the Week: Before taking a test unload what you know. Take a sheet of notebook paper and write down (leaving plenty of space) the major topics of the chapter. Then write down as many things as you can remember on that topic. Then become an expert. Tell what you know to someone else (older siblings, friends, and parents are great listeners). If you can teach it or explain it so someone understands what you are talking about, then you know it!
