Daily Agenda, Wednesday

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
* I am still seeing some of you leaving textbooks out at the work stations. If I have to I will assign you a book # and I will for sure know who left what out.
* I will be out tomorrow. Gone to a workshop. I expect yall to be on your best behavior for the sub. Treat the sub like my "assistant manager". You will have plenty to do and I expect it to be done. I don't want to come back to a bad report of "they talked all period and when I redirected them, they did not get on task." Remember I take away 25 points on your Professionalism grade for inapporpriate work habits during class time, so please make sure you don't lose any points tomorrow.
* CHECK YOUR MAIL BOX. Remember that each of you have a mailbox now in that front, dark bookshelf. This is NOT A PLACE YOU TO LEAVE PAPERS FOR SAFE KEEPING. I EXPECT EVERYONE TO COME IN EACH DAY AND CHECK YOUR BOX AND TAKE OUT ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE IN THERE. This is very important and this too can cost you Professionalism points, for not being responsible.
I expect to see every box empty after 2nd period today!!!!

WARM-UP:
1) log on, check blog
2) update 1st six weeks time sheetTurn 1st Six Weeks Time Sheet in if you have it signed by employer. (1st SIX WEEKS TIME SHEETS MUST BE TURNED IN SIGNED, BY FRIDAY, OCT. 10TH. So far I have only received 3. Please turn these into the turn in box.)
3) Update your 2nd six weeks time sheet (if you don't have one come see me)
4) Copy pay check stubs and update Pay Check Stub Record Sheet (yellow)
5) Spend 10 minutes on Free Rice. I will set a timer. At the end of that time period, you will need to go into your Grains of Rice Spreadsheet and record the total number of your daily donation.

PLEASE HELP YOUR NEW CO-WORKERS WITH THE ABOVE TASKS. New employees are: Rayvell Taylor, Maricia Grant, and Demetrio Olivas. (I need someone in 2nd period to help Demetrio set up a blog and post a comment to my blog.)

CLASS TIME:
6) Beginning Chapter 2 (we are going to do Chapter 2 a totally different way)
I will discuss with you what you will be doing to study Chapter 2.
7) Discuss activities for tomorrow.

Remember that I won't be here tomorrow, so you need to be the best employees you can be and get everything done that I assign for you to do. You will have a blog post tomorrow as well.

Have a great day.
