Study Guide for Test

This week has an unusual schedule so I have changed the unit somewhat.  We were originally supposed to work on Modules 3 & 4 this week and then 5 & 6 next week.  I am flip-flopping that.  We will focus on Modules 5 & 6 this week.  I have revised the calendar and the due dates on the checklist.

Things to note:  there will be no quiz on boolean expressions.  The test date remains the same (Friday, October 19th).

Monday:  NO SCHOOL
Tuesday:  I will return last week's quiz and we will discuss the changes to the calendar.  Remaining time will be lab time spent on Modules 5 & 6.
Wednesday:  PSAT day for students in grades 9 - 11.  Dismissal will be at 12:30.  Seniors have a Digital Learning day to work on college applications and essays.
Thursday & Friday:  I will be in a county meeting for both days.  Students will continue to work on modules 5 & 6 in class.

Updated Unit Calendar
