Mid-Term Reference Sheet Directions (follow these directions to a T otherwise you will not be allowed to use your notes on the mid-term

• write your name in the upper right hand corner


• underneath your name, write "Alg 2 Mid-Term Exam"


• underneath that, write the date and the period


• then fold your paper in half vertically (hot dog)


• trace that fold


• then begin writing out your notes for each problem


• be sure to number them like they are on the mid-term practice


• for example, the first box will be #3 not #1


• wherever you finish with that problem, draw a horizontal line


• continue with this process if you go onto the back and for every page of notes thereafter


• staple your notes together BEFORE the mid-term begins


• if your notes are not nice and neat and in boxes, you will not be permitted to use them on the exam
