7th Grade
This week you need to work on organizing your notebooks. It is important to focus on creating notebooks that are functional, this means always having a heading and labeling all of your work (topics, do nows, page #'s and titles). It is also important to have a classwork section and a homework section; this will make it easier to review your work and study for exams.
Spend time this week making sure that all your assignments are up to date. Progress Reports will be given out after Easter Vacation on April 29, 2009.
