After getting back a graded quiz and the correct answers, for each question you MISSED you can earn back points by explaining WHY the right answer is right and the other three multiple choice options COULD NOT BE correct. You may notice that there is only room to reclaim four questions per sheet (2 on the front, 2 on the back). If you miss more than four questions, you can just use multiple sheets and staple them together. Here is what you should write on each sheet: 1. Your name 2. The number and name of the quiz in the space provided

For each missed question, here is what you should write in the spaces provided: 1. Question # : The number of the question that you are reclaiming. 2. Observations: these are the facts that are provided in the question that may be of use in explaining the answer. You can get the observations from the question. 3. Rules: these are the scientific ideas and facts that will help you explain the answer. You can get the rules from your textbook, your notes, or your memory. 4. Option A is correct / incorrect because: for each question option, CIRCLE “correct” or “incorrect”. Then use the rules and observations to explain why each of the wrong answers is wrong and why the right answer is right.
