There is no homework for any class over the break. Please take this time to enjoy the time off. If you are behind in work now is the time to look up work to do on the website and turn it in when you come back.

If you need other things to do. Pick a section out of the book from chapters 1,2, or 3. Do 25 problems from one of the sections, I will give you 5 points to use on tracking sheets or classworks, to make up missed assignments.

I will also be helping your test taking skills by giving some test taking exercises to you over the next few weeks to help ease any anxieties or fears you have about test taking.

Tuesday/Thrusday 11/12/09

There is no homework for this week. This is a good time to do make up work or any homeworks you are missing.

For periods 4,6,7,1, for the weekend, you are to make up ALL the problems you missed on the benchmark. Either with a short sentence explaining why you got the wrong answer, or work showing how to get the right answer. Made up problems will replace the missed ones on the benchmark.

"I guessed wrong" is not a good answer to why you missed a problem.

"I added negative 4 and got 6 when it should have been -3" is a good sentence.
