****REMINDERS/UPCOMING DATES****

Advanced Math

Language Arts:
*Read Chapters 7, 8, 9 in The Westing Game
*Complete the journal response (listed below in Wednesday's blog entry)
*Be sure you are all caught up in your reading and journal responses (look at previous blog entries to get these). Otherwise, you will be drowning in work when you return. After break, we will have assigned reading and journal responses EVERY SINGLE DAY. Start with a clean slate so as to save yourself from stress later.
NHD/Social Studies:
*NHD, NHD, NHD, NHD... What can I say? Use your time wisely over break and get some researching and notetaking done! This would be the perfect time to find more resources and start developing a project plan of some sort. At the end of January, we will be implementing your plans and creating the projects, so be ready to do an awesome job!
*On January 10 (for my Block 1 LA class) and January 11 (for Block 2 LA class), we will walking to the Main Library again for use of the research resources there. We won't have a tour this time, and hopefully the library's Wi-Fi will be up and running. You will have a lot of time to get some work done.
*Remember to keep track of all your bibliographic information (names of authors, titles, publication dates, and website addresses) so that you can successfully create an annotated bibliography later.
