U.S. History Pre-Test

Today, you will be taking a pre-test of the content we will be covering in our U.S. History class this semester.  You ARE NOT expected to do well as you have NOT learned much of this information yet.  It will simply be used as a way for me to collect data from the beginning of the semester and compare it to the end of the semester after we have completed all of our units. 

Do your best, but remember this WILL NOT count as a grade!!!
