8-4 & 8-7 - HOMEWORK CHECK is TUESDAY, April 26th....on 6.5 Pages 347-348 #1-9, 12,13,17
If students were unable to apply themselves in class to complete these and did not take on the responsibility to complete them in the evenings for homework, a three-strike rule was followed until the student and myself will call home to discuss a plan for how to start some good habits in practicing their math!  :-)

If you are all done your text assignment:
