Studying for your Sentence Fluency Test
The trick is studying 'smart' and looking for the red flags that give you the clues to the answer
e.g. what words do you need to be highlighting if you are trying to decide whether something is compound or complex?
e.g. what's the difference between a semi colon and a comma?
e.g what are the four charateristics of both compound and complex sentences?
e.g. how can you learn from the mistakes you made in your worksheets?
You are expected to spend about 10 mins every night next week practicing these exercises and playing these games below.

Hi Mrs. Moore,
Do we need to remember all the characteristics of the sentences for Thursday's test?
India
You should definitely know the characteristics. Knowing what it takes to be each kind of sentence will help you identify them when you see them, and proof read your own work to improve your fluency when writing. Thanks for the question.

For the entreprneur thing I was wondering what Production Cost per unit
Julia Tayloe
Hi Julia1
Production cost per unit is simply how much you think it would cost you in supplies and labor to create on of your invention items. The second item, price per unit, is at what price you think you could reasonably sell your item. The third item is the profit--the difference between price of sale to price of production.
