8th Grade Life Science Test

When Dr. Lowe told my class to log onto Educat and take the 8th grade science test I thought it was going to be pretty simple. I couldn't remember certain topics we had in 8th, but I figured it wouldn't be very difficult. While I was taking the test I realized I was in the 8th grade about 6 years ago and hadn't learned or reviewed those certain topics in such a long time. It surprised me how easy it was for me to forget certain things. It's just like taking a difficult math class, but forgetting simple algebra rules.
I learned a lot about my self while taking this test. I want to minor in Integrated Science and that means I need to work hard to remember things that I will be teaching in the future. I don't plan on teaching the 8th grade, but if that is the position I am offered it is going to happen. I also learned I don't have much knowledge on the classification of living things. Many animals are obvious as to what their classification is, but some were very hard to notice.
