Infinite Campus is updated for all homework assignments.  Proficiency Checks that were made up today in class will be graded by class time tomorrow.  Please check the "no name" wall in the classroom if you are sure that you completed an assignment but it is not listed as complete in IC.

Thursday, December 1
Finished Up Review, including Advanced Opportunity
NOTE:  Several students have asked if I have any "worksheets" for practice.  I recommend that students go back and look at any old homework (yes, you've done them before, but you probably don't remember the answers, right?) - do the problems again and check your answers, either with the completed work OR on my keys before school.  There are many practice problems in the book as well - you just need to search them out.
ASSESSMENT TOMORROW!
