September 28 to Oct 2, 2009

Note: I was absent today (Monday)and probably will be tomorrow. I have been sick. It is possible that I will recover by tomorrow morning but I am not sure. I do not think I should expose the kids. The sub will follow my plans. I will again offer retakes on tests when I return. I hope all of you are in good health.

Note:My absence this week, committee work on Thursday and the shortened schedule Friday has made it impossible to either review properly for the tests or administer them properly. Therefore, I have decided to spend Friday in review as well as an extended review on the Monday after our return from Fort Flagler. The tests will be postponed until that Tuesday.

Please remember, the specific assignments and/or modifications are pasted on to this blog each day so that you can copy them at home for your use. Also, encourage your student to retake tests if they desire their score to improve. More individual help can be given that way. Have a great week end.
