Happy Monday. We have another full week. Remember I try and post all handouts in the appropriate section off to the right. If you can't find something you are looking for, check with Mrs. Drake and I will try and help you out. I know we are nearing the end of the school year, but we still have 6 weeks left. You can't quit working or those grades will suffer. This also means that you have 6 weeks to get any low grades up to where you want them to be.

Geography

We are finishing up with the material we started last week. The map test over Southeast Asia is on block day and the Chapter 27 test will be on Friday, April 23rd. Make sure you are prepared for both.

English

There is a quiz over Act III today. If you have your study guides completed and all of your handouts it should be a piece of cake. Make sure you come to class prepared, you can't go back to your lockers to get your study guide. We will have time on block day to work on your research papers. You should be close to finished with them. At this time, the scheduled due date for the research paper is yet to be determined. I will keep you updated and will post the due date as soon as it has been determined!

Science

We are winding down the unit on waves. Both the computer and written tests will be planned for the end of the week. Make sure you have all of your papers together and completed to turn in after you take the computer test on Friday. Friday will also be your final opportunity to turn in and present your "Wave Blocker" to Mr. Hess. This is an 100 point assignment that I wouldn't just ignore.
