Extra Help and Binder Organization

Tuesday, May 19 at lunch.

As exams will be in approximately a month, I will be offering extra help at lunch.   It is by choice for students to attend, and students are expected to have specific areas they have questions about.  Students are also welcome to come and study quietly.

Please note there will be a change with Current Events.  Instead of alternating Current Events with What in the World, the cycle will go two Current Events (half the class goes the first Day 2 or 6, then the other half will go the next Day 2 or 6), then a What in the World. 

8-6 -  Day 2 Per. 3 and 4. (as scheduled).  Example:  Nov 3 and Nov 12 will be Current Events, then Nov 20 will be a What in the World. 

8-5 – Day 6 Per. 1 and 2 (as scheduled).  Example Nov 7 will be What in the World, then Nov. 18 and Nov. 26 will be Current Events.
