Too cold and too busy this week
Ok, American Government has been working on Missouri government all week. We had two assignments - Monday and Tuesday. Our Missouri Constitution Exam will be Friday 12/11. This is required for graduation and students need to pass with a 70% or higher.
Sociology has been working on prejudice and discrimination. We read an article from the KC Star on Tuesday and completed an in-class simulation on Thursday. The goal is to take the quiz on Friday 12/11. Snow day might mess that up - we will have to see how the hour goes tomorrow. If we have to - the quiz will reschedule to Monday.
Finals are next week. As soon as students can show me a completed final review they are welcome to check in their textbook.
