Daily Agenda, Thursday 11/20

REMINDERS:
I AM GONE TODAY, DON'T FORGET. I EXPECT YOU TO ALL BE ON EXCEPTIONAL BEHAVIOR TODAY AND TO DO EVERYTHING I LIST HERE FOR YOU. Please don't let me down today.

We have to have some serious discussions about what's been going on around here when I get back.

I still have your folders at home. There are a lot of you who are missing all kinds of documents, pay check stubs, filling out the pay check stub record sheet. Your grade this six weeks may really suffer because of that. You have to keep that stuff up to date, because you never know when I am going to take a grade on it, plus it is the law and a major part of this class.

Hopefully tomorrow or Monday I can let each of you know what I am missing from you.

Tests will be taken in Quia tomorrow so be prepared for that.

Chapters 10 and 11 will Present on December 2, (the Tuesday after Thanksgiving). These groups need to be ready.


WARM-UP:
1) EVERYONE Check your mailbox. Get everything out of your mailbox.
2) If you need ot make copies of check stubs, please do so and then just put the copies in your mailbox for safe keeping until I return tomorrow with your folders.
3) Update your 3rd Six Weeks time sheet

CLASS ACTIVITIES:
4) You are to complete all the Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 lesson activities that were left in your box. I copied many of them front and back, so be sure to complete both sides of each document. You need to work delingently on these handouts, because this is your review for the tests you will take tomorrow.
5) The sub will go over the answers with you to ensure that you have all the correct answers to study for your tests with. Each of the chapter 8 and chapter 9 groups may need to help the sub decifer what answer keys are what, etc. Please do that if needed. You will not be able to use any of your notes on the tests so you better study all of your notes and handouts for each chapter before tomorrow.

SUB - PLEASE BEGIN GOING OVER ANSWERS WITH STUDENTS AT:
1ST PERIOD: 9:15
2ND PERIOD: 10:20

25 BONUS POINTS ON EACH TEST-->
6) I will give you 25 bonus points per test if you complete the following during class today (after you have done the handouts) and turn it in to the box TOMORROW BEFORE WE TAKE THE TESTS (you may not take a textbook home with you)
