This document outlines plans for an EOG boot camp at Woodlawn Middle School to help students prepare for their end-of-grade tests. It includes sample schedules, quizzes, and activities for math, science, reading and social studies. Students can earn prizes each week for scoring 80% or higher on quizzes. There will also be an athletic and academic challenge where students compete in teams on EOG review games and physical activities run by each subject teacher. The goal is to help students feel prepared for the high-stakes EOG exams through focused review and motivation.

12. EOG Quiz Scores
To keep up with the daily
quizzes, we make a new grade
book in EGP just for EOG Boot
Camp.
SMART Response clickers are
great for the short quizzes… less
grading!
If possible, each student
should be allowed to keep their
quizzes. The quizzes are great
review documents.
13. Athletic & Academic Challenge
•Students compete in groups of 4 (student choice)
•Each core teacher is responsible for their subject
EOG review game and an athletic challenge
oEx. Math Teacher will use SMART Response
clickers for EOG review and bowling for
athletic challenge
oScience Teacher will use Jeopardy for EOG review
and hula hoop relay for athletic challenge
14. Athletic & Academic Challenge
Students will earn points for each correct EOG review
question and the top 3 groups in each athletic
challenge will earn points.
Spreadsheet is best way to keep track of teams and
points earned… this can be passed electronically to
each teacher to fill in points.
