Day to Day Instructions:
Directions
For each class I will post what we did that period. Some days there will be book work assignments. Some days there will be powerpoints to review, notes to take, or some other assignment or activity to complete. Each day will be different. I believe that students do not like the same old, same old. They like to do different types of activities and projects. This is the reason I like to keep class assignments mixed up. This Website will help you to keep up or get you caught up. Look on this page everyday for the updated list of class activities and assignments.
