The quiz with many questions...

There was no class on Tuesday. Today, most of us entered the classroom sore, from playing all of our instruments from the class before, some of us just took the finals, right before. We were all scared of what was happening next. Unfortunately, because Mr. Armstrong was not here, we could not do the traditional hand-shaking when we first entered the classroom. Everyone sat in their original seating assignment from what I could see. Luckily, our substitute, Mr. Campbell gave us an extra 15 minutes to do some extra cramming before we took the quiz. Many people turned to their neighbors and quizzed each other on something they thought would show up on the test. Finally, the moments came. Mr. Campbell handed out the part of the test where we would ahve to write our answers to everybody, back-sided so that everyone would see the test at the same time. He told us to add questions 21 - 25 and cross out question 3. Then, Mr. Campbell handed out the part of the test that had the questions in it, back-sided once again. Finally, everybody turned the test and got started. We had 30 minutes to finish the quiz. The questions on that quiz were all based on our key terms and main ideas. The questions ranged from the winter at valley forge all the way to John Paul Jones. We all let go of our anxiety by writing evrything we knew about that subject. Finally, when we had only about 5 more minutes until we had to hand in our quizzes, almost everyone was double - checking their work to see if they made any mitakes. Quiz time was over. But, luckiyl Mr. Campbell surprised us by letting us have another 3 minutes to modify or delete our answers with the help of our textbooks. I think that almost everyone raised their grades higher by getting this extra time to edit our quizzes. Finally, we really had to turn in our tests. Mr. Campbell worked his way from my left all the way to the right, collecting everybody's tests. We had a few minutes so everyone discussed about the questions on the test and how hard they were. Class finally ended and everyone made their way out of the classroom, trying to forget everythign about the quiz.
