TUESDAY, 9/4/12

Welcome Back!  I hope you had a great summer and are now ready to jump back into a great school year! 

Homework:
  • Review course outline with parents/guardians and get it signed!
  • Play the Rockin'Raptor Quiz show on QUIA (Review exercises) web.  The URL can be found on your course outline and is as follows:      http://www.quia.com/pages/vchilcott/page3  . 
  • Don't forget...you do NOT have to log in to the QUIA website.  Just click on the activity and then click "play game"! Play until you become a "millionaire!"  You will probably have to play more than once since you might miss one at first, but that's OK--there's a lot to learn about your teachers! Use the hints! When you become a "millionaire," print out the page OR have your parents sign in your planner that you are now richer than you ever imagined!  Show Mrs. Chilcott for choice account tickets!
Today in class:  We went over the course outline and team rules.
