Assignment for May 8, 2012
Hey Ladies and Gentlemen!
As part of your assignment for today you are preparing for either a Senior Final or a Test (for everyone else) next week. This week you are preparing for by working on vocabulary from chapters 12 and 13 and working on your study guides. Today you will do two things
- use your book and write out all of the vocabulary for chapters 12 and 13 that will be on your Final/test next week.
- pick up the study guide for Earth science and begin on that if you have time. You do not need to complete this at this time but need to hold on to it as we will be working on this all week. Again, It is not homework but you need to hold on to it AND bring your books to school the rest of the week.
Have a Great Day and I will see you later!
Ms. McPherson
