January 30 - February 2, 2017

Final exams are done, second term has ended, and report cards have been distributed.  Were you happy with your results? or, do you need to make a better plan for term 3?  Do you have a homework routine, a place and time to do your homework without interruptions from cell phone, tv, or video games?  If not, you should!  Also you should be using your agenda or someway to record homework assignments, keep track of tests and quizzes, or projects. 

ELA:  Argument essay should be finished or almost finished.  Turn in this week! Romeo and Juliet has begun and there is so much fun for us in store.  Masquerade ball, role playing, and of course, the movies.  Stay on track, and make sure that you put the time and effort into your work.

History: Chapter 15 (4) and (5) was due last week.  This week you should be working on Chapter 16 sections.  Check Mr. Stanton's blog for specific details and questions. 

Algebra: POLYNOMIALS! Simplify, add and subtract like terms/degrees.  If you are having difficulty, get a math lab pass or stay after for extra help!

Biology: Strawberry DNA lab was last class. Vocabulary quiz on Monday 1/30 on the first five words. Use your split page notes, or flash cards to study.  This week the DNA unit continues with replication--making an identical copy of the DNA strand.

Put forth a good solid effort, and you will see the results of your time and energy!  Consistency is Key!! Three weeks until vacation.  Here we go---

Extra help is available on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons when there are late buses.  Stay and get extra help, or just get your homework done.  Room 241 or with Red Team teachers.  Make third term the best one ever!
