EOCT Questions and Answer Forum


Hi Students, Use this space to bring your questions or concerns about the EOCT this week. Please keep in mind that if we have taken a portion of the EOCT, we will NOT be able to discuss that part anymore, we will only be able to discuss what's to come.

Don't forget to report directly to the "computer lab" on Tuesday and Wednesday to begin immediately on your test. We will only be given a single class period to take the test, so we can't waste any time.

As a sidebar, I'd like to say that learning the grammar of any language is challenging, and the grammar of the English language is no exception. Please know that it's not as scripted and "boxed in" as say math or some other subject that has right or wrong answers. Sometimes, it's left up to the interpretation of the person. With that being said, don't get all twisted if something I say is not exactly as you learned it in Middle School or vise versa. We were all taught by different people, and our conceptions are based on that person's interpretations of the conventions of the language. If ever in doubt, use what's in front of you... the Internet, and see what others have to say. It's okay to do that now before taking the test.

I'll be online tonight to check in on your questions, or discussions with each other.

Mrs. Glenn
