Advanced Math:  Students took the Growing, Growing, Growing summative exam today.  Students who didn't finish were instructed to find time to come and finish before Monday is over. 

Language Arts:  Homework for Monday is to read Chapters 16, 17, and 18 and to finish the following journal entry: Who do you think killed Sam Westing and why? As always, students are expected to provide textual evidence to support their reasoning.  Students who have missed ANY journal entries or who are behind on their reading need to spend some time this weekend getting caught up.

NHD/Social Studies:  There are three main parts to the NHD project that need to be completed by the end of the month:

1. A well planned out, neat, and thorough project
2. An annotated bibliography
3. A process paper (This has not been introduced yet.  If you want to get a head start, I believe the information is in the student guide that I uploaded to Edmodo under the NHD group.  You don't have to start this yet, though.  Just know that it is coming and that it is a requirement.)

Your NHD project is part of your Language Arts and Social Studies grades, as those are the standards that are being focused on.
