1.  Read the chapter.  You don’t have to read it all at one time; break it into small sections.  A suggested reading list is:

  1. Day 1:  Page 1 to 5

  2. Day 2:  Page 5 to top of 9

  3. Day 3:  Page 9 to top of 11

  4. Day 4:  Page 11 to 14

  5. Day 5:  Page 16 to 18

  6. Day 6:  Page 19 to 20

  7. Day 7:  Page 21 to 24

  8. Day 8:  Page 31 to 34

  9. Day 9:  Page 35 to 38

  10. Day 10:  Page 39 to 41

2.  Pay attention to bold words, definitions, and key ideas. Take notes on your reading.  Mark these sections in your chapter with a highlighter.  This will help you later as you review before your test; the highlighted sentences will show you what to focus on in your review.

3.  Listen to the chapter.  You can listen to the chapter as you read along, or you can listen while you are taking a walk or doing your chores.

4.  Try to complete some of the activities after each chapter.  Some require supplies you may have around the house and some you will only need paper and pencil.  These will help you understand the concepts better. 

5.  Complete the AE Module 6 Crossword Puzzle and Word Search puzzle.  These will help you review some of the key ideas and words in the chapter.  Be sure to highlight these in your book if you missed them in Step 2.

6.  Watch the AE Module 6 videos on YouTube.  There are several videos that CAP members have created to help you learn these topics.

Chapter 2:  https://youtu.be/sMpC4h1dQfs  
Chapter 3:https://youtu.be/cytI6DzB5og

7.  Can you answer the objectives at the beginning of each chapter?  At the beginning of each chapter, there are a list of Learning Outcomes.  These are what you should learn in the chapter.  Try to answer each learning outcome.  For example, a learning outcome may be “Identify the four layers of the atmosphere.”  Can you name the four layers of the atmosphere?  You could have someone help you with this or you could do this by yourself.  It isn’t a real quiz, but a tool to help you know what you need to work on.

8.  Need more practice?  Consider a Kahoot! game or use the flashcards/games on Quizlet.  Other CAP members have made many helpful tools for you to use. And you can always create your own games if you like!

9.   Work through the Cadet Interactive module for a final review and practice.

10.   Take your test!   You can test online through eServices / Axis or request permission to take the test on paper at the squadron.  

11.  Didn’t pass?   You have to wait seven (7) days to retest on Axis.  Take this time to go back and read the chapter again.  Focus on the areas you highlighted.  Repeat the other options that may help you:  listen to the chapter, play the games, use the flash cards.   Ask someone to help you explain anything you don’t understand.   After seven (7) days, you can retake the test if you feel ready.

12.  Passed!   Awesome work!  You have not only met the objectives of Module 6, but you have learned new ways to help you study.
