Wednesday November 21, 2007

Sorry I was absent today.
I hope you all had a GREAT day and got lots of work done on your projects.

Today in MATH we:
  • Worked on our portfolio projects - fingerprint analysis.
  • Reminder: your fingerprint analysis project is due on Monday December 3rd.
  • Tips: follow the handout you received, you need to complete all of the things listed on it, remember this is worth nearly 10% of your grade.
  • We will do our class fingerprint analysis on Friday - be ready.
  • Have you finished the worksheets from yesterday: recognizing word problem patterns & filling out your "study" sheet with examples of how to solve problems?
  • Reminder: Quiz tomorrow - uniform motion, developing formulas.

Today in SCIENCE we:

  • Worked on our portfolio projects - chemistry timeline.
  • Reminder: your chemistry timeline project is due on Monday November 26, 2007.
  • Tips: follow the handout you received, you need to complete all of the things listed on it, remember this is worth nearly 10% of your grade.
  • Have you finished your notes and c&r? We are getting to the end of a section...you know what that might mean....a quiz next week.
  • Reminder: Spelling quiz on Friday - do you KNOW & UNDERSTAND your 5 words? Can you use them properly in a sentence? A proper sentence is not "We learned the word metalloid today." With that you have earned a zero.
  • Reminder: Current Events on Friday - is it your turn? Newspapers available.

ALL THE REST:

  • That may be the last bit of class time you get for your projects. I hope you used it wisely.
  • What would an independent learner do? Review for 15 minutes each night!
