This
sheet is to help you study for the December test. We hope that it may help you
to identify key terms and ideas as you study and make connections that may be
helpful for essay-type questions. Fill out the boxes to the best of your
ability – there may be some you leave blank but you should be able to fill in
most of this sheet. I have started the sheet with some of the easier items. The
list is not exhaustive, just suggestive.
