Pre-Algebra: We will have a mini-quiz Friday on lessons 8.1 and 8.2.  We made a "cheat sheet" today.  You may use it on your quiz on FRIDAY!!

LA - students took their quiz on their novels today. I then introduced them to their final paper/project. We went over and discussed and if they had an questions they were answered.  They started brainstorming as well. For the students that have been recommended by me or you, the parent, into honors English next year, they were assigned a more challenging topic, which is choice #3, story analysis. This assignment is also worth more points. They did not have a choice in doing the other topics I provided for the students.  HW - start on their paper. The rough draft is due on May 12 for peer editing. We will be working on this assignment in stages.  The assignment is attached
