Regents Review Packet

500 Global Studies Terms

Stage 1:

Use the link below to access the 500 terms

(1) Go over 1/2 of a column a study session with blank flash cards on hand

(2) Try to remember the terms as you go through them, and say them to yourself

(3) If you do not know a term(s) create flash cards for only the ones you don't know!
      - The term on a blank side of the card and definition on the other

(4) Study the cards that you had made until you feel comfortable knowing most of them

(5) Flag the ones that you have a tough time recalling with a star or highlighter

(6) The following study session, go back through your cards and try to recall the terms

      * You do not have to wait until you remember all of the terms on the cards to move 
         to the next set of terms but you should file the ones you do not know with the next
         set of cards you do not know...and repeat this cycle

      ** The objective to the constant review of the terms is to hopefully not have any
           cards at all by the time you take the exam

300 Term Quia Flash Card Site

Stage 1 (cont...)

Use this site like the 500 page site above.  There is a lot of overlap between the 2 sites.

(1) Again, take 25-50 terms (what ever you feel comfortable dealing with at a time) and  review the terms.  The ones you do not know, write down on a flash card. Read above.

(2) Be sure to check the "Term First" box and un-check the "Both Sides" box located on the top of the card

(3) After you are done with the card you are working on, click the arrow to the right for another card

(4) Repeat...

Past Regents Exams With Scoring Keys

Stage 3:

Use the link below to access past regents exams. 

(1) Print the key first but do not look at it when you are going through the questions

(2) Answer the multiple choice section 4-6 questions at a time (I use a column on a page or an entire page depending on the amount of questions on the page)

(3) Go back over the answers to those 4-6 questions on the sheet and see how you are doing

(4) If you are coming across terms you did not know, go back to the vocab page links above

Random Regents Multiple Choice Quizzes

Stage 3 (cont...)

First off, these are not as good as going through the actual past Regents exams from the link before this one.  Yes, it is automated but, it is better to get the feel of the wording from the actual Regents exams. 

(1) Access the link and scroll down to the 9 separate quizzes under the second topic in turquoise labeled "Global History and Geography"

(2) Be aware that each quiz is timed

(3) Be sure to write down you scores
    
     *Hopefully your scores are better on quiz #9 than quiz #1!

Regents Review Live

Stage 4:

The night before the exam, play this hour and a half  review of the course.  It is an easy watch and it can tie in some of the themes you have been studying for the last 8 weeks.

(1) Go to the link below and be sure to click on the "Watch Live 2.0" link below the main mosaic...don't ask "what is a mosaic!"

*Do not use this as your whole review for the exam!

**If you are trying to "cram" the night before the exam as you have not studied till now, ask yourself this question; do you really think you can review 2 years worth of history in one night?  I didn't think so either.  Better to get a good night sleep than to frustrate yourself!
