HONORS UPDATE: All I can say is "WOW"! The teams that have taught so far did a fantastic job. You won't want to miss the "Game Changers" in action on Tuesday. They are submitting their plans and I am so impressed with what I've seen!

Reminder: On Tuesday I will be giving you a bell ringer quiz on all sections taught last week (9.5 through 9.8). If you have any questions regarding Friday's homework, please ask! Once that is done, we will move right into the game reviews for the polynomials unit prepared by your classmates. YOUR TEST IS THURSDAY.

Deep Thinkers: the ladies in the house have set the bar high. Here's hoping that the fellas provide us with a strong finish to the team projects. If so, I see a celebration in the near future.

A-4 HONORS.....YOU ROCK!!!
