Of the first 10 answers, you have three right -- 30%. That's about the score I'd expect with random answers.

Kayla -- it's beyond me how you expect to learn and answer specific questions without a book. Jiskha is a homework HELP forum, but we cannot teach you a whole course.

After you get the book and study it carefully, we'll be glad to check your answers again.
read your book on line is the same thing i'm studying the same questions and i could give them to you but if you want to be a real teacher aid you need to study it doen't make any sense if you have all the answers from somebody else don't you think????

Well first of all .. i see alot of people on here telling one another that they need to do this and do that! I'm am also a student with a online school and i am also taking the teachers aid as an elective course...THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT I WANT TO BE A TEACHERS AID! this also means that everyone on here that is asking for help may or may not want to be a teachers aid either! I am only searching for answers because this is my last course and i am trying to finish because i start college in the summer... I have to have this course finished before i start.. I am going to college to work in Computer networking not for a teachers aid ! Thanks so much for understanding an outsiders point of view !
GO TO PENN FOSTER ON LINE THEY HAVE THE UNIT THAT YOU'RE STUDYING UNDER COURSE MODULES. THERE IS NO NEED TO GUESS
You get the books or you wouldn't have the questions. The text is the course book and the exam is in the back of it.

Why not just ask instead of lying about the whole book thing. You are going through PennFoster HS and they always have the study guides. Not everything has a hard book with it.
Need help I have study my book and take the testn the back and would like to know if I have them right. 1a2c3d4a5c6a7a8b9a10c11c12a13a14a15b16a17c18b19c20c please help me thanks

dont be so quick to accuse her of lying! i waited three months for penn foster to send me a text book and they never did! it was my very last test subject and i wasn't going to keep waiting to get it done either! and not all of the material is found in the study guide. so make sure you have your facts straight. and as for her having only 30 percent because of random answers? you have no idea. she could of actually tried and just may not know anything about teachers aid. this was probably just an extra course she had to take. gosh stupid people make me mad!
The individual that has supplied answers for this site, has not read this material correctly and has given wrong answers to most of these questions. You will fall if you haven't researched the material for yourself.
