[quote=Anonymous]My older child started middle school this year in MCPS. She has no textbooks in any class. When I was in school (admittedly not in U.S.), we had textbooks so when we had a test, we would know to study chapters 1-4, for example. I would re-read the chapters, make flashcards if there was an vocabulary, and generally just cover the page with my hand and "test" myself on my recollection of the material. I am struggling with how to explain to DD how best to study since she does not have textbooks. She did not have any tests in elementary school so studying generally is new to her. Math is easy as it is very discrete. But how best to study english, world studies. When I ask DD what the test covers, she shows me a few worksheets that she filled out in class. I really am at a loss other than to tell her to look over the worksheets. How does your middle school aged child study for tests?[/quote]
