End-of-the-Quarter Gift :)

You've done a lot of hard work over the past 10 weeks. I know that every once in a while, things happen and homework gets forgotten...  So as a gift to you, I'm allowing each of you to drop one homework assignment.  Go into your gradebook and look at all of the homework assignments that have a score (do not look at the assignments that were excused - those don't affect your grade).  Find the assignment with the lowest score, and post the name of that assignment (don't post the score).

If Julie Anderson from period 4 wants to drop pg. 250, this is what she would post:

Name/URL: Julie A (remember no last names)
period 4
pg. 250

This must be done by 10:00 PM on Thursday, October 17.  Tell your friends :)

Check back before the deadline to make sure yours was posted.  If you don't seen it, read the directions and try again...

Period 5 and 6 - Extra Credit!

Friday is the last day of the quarter, and you have one more unit test...  I want to be sure you know exactly where you stand in the class before you take the Unit 3 Test on Thursday.  Go to your math grade in Campus Portal and find three grades - your current ('in progress") grade, your test/quiz average, and your homework average.  Look only at the numbers to the right of the decimal - these are the numbers you are going to post. I will be able to verify the numbers you post, but nobody else will know what the numbers represent (34, for example, could represent 98.34% or 62.34%...).

Example: Mike Smith from period 4 has a current class grade of 91.36, a test/quiz average of 93.78, and a homework average of 85.02...  His comment would say:

Name/URL:  Mike S.

period 4
Class: 36
Test: 78
Homework: 02


This extra credit opportunity expires at 9:00 PM on Wednesday, October 16... Tell your friends :)

Check back before the deadline to make sure it posted...  If it doesn't get posted, it means either that it didn't go through or that you made a mistake with the information - and you'll need to check the info and do it again.  Remember, though, that it won't post immediately - I have to okay it first.
