FlashCards


How to use FlashCard Decks – When you have a few minutes to review, open up on mobile or desktop and flip through to quickly memorize these life-relevant units and conversions. Simply tap or click the card to reveal the other side. If you feel like you really know it, click or tap, “Got it!” and you won’t see it again during this session. If you click “Need more practice,” it will appear again later for you to review. You can shuffle the deck at any time. When you reach the end, you can always reply the deck. It’s best to commit just a few minutes a day rather than trying to cram 30 minutes before a quiz or test. Good luck.

(Mobile Hint: There is a small FULLSCREEN button at the top left of each deck. If you press it, and/or rotate your screen, it will fill up your phone’s display.)
