The key to success in Global History and Geography is regular attendance at class, and close attention to the material that the teacher presents during each class session. Each student should come to class with a pencil/pen and a notebook. The recommended notebook is a 3-ring binder, in which he/she keeps regular class notes, handouts, and copies of old quizzes. Regular review of material presented at each class session is an important part of passing the weekly quizzes that form the basis of quarterly grades.
