 四 What to Expect from Tests New Answer Sheets When you walk into the room on the day of a test, pick up an answer sheet from the front table. DO NOT LOOK FOR YOUR OWN NAME. Sit down. Your desk should only have someone’s answer sheet and a pencil on it. Do not give the answer sheet you picked up to anyone else. Longer Questions This test has 46 questions. Most of these questions require a lot of reading for each question. Make sure you carefully read each question. Amendments 1 through 8 of the Bill of Rights are printed on this test. In other words, the answers are on your test paper.

 四 What to Expect from Tests When you are finished Put the answer sheet in the upper-right corner of your desk. Put the test on top of that so that your answers are hidden. Get a book to read from the class library. You do not need permission to go get a book from the classroom library. You may read a book you brought from home instead. Strange Numbering Your answer sheet will have numbers 1 through 100. The first question on your test is numbered 11. Where should you bubble your first answer? I will remind you again on test day.
