4th 1/4 - week 15's lessons - 5/11 - 5/15 - 2009

I am a little upset with last week's response to extra credit. Many of you should have taken advantage of the opportunities. Time is running out and last week most of you said that you were not satisfied with your grade, so you should have done something about it. Remember, Yoda said, "There is no try in do." This week you have only one thing you can do for extra credit. You need to copy and paste last week's message from the blog and the bottom table from Aeries of your grade, both on the same page, and have your parents write a short note of what they think of your grade this semester. They need to both print their names and sign it as well. This is due before the warning bell in class Tuesday 5/12.
There are no exceptions to the directions.
