*Students will have until next Wednesday (10/5/11) to retake the quiz for a better score.


Thursday- We did an activity called "What Did I Do Wrong" where students examined a compilation of common mistakes made on the quiz from yesterday.  They had to go through each problem and locate the errors and redo the problem the correct way.  
**I have also decided to extend the GEOMETRY UNIT for another week, so the FINAL and PORTFOLIO RE-SUBMISSION have been postponed until further notice.
