Lots of Missing HW, Lots of Incorrect Quizlet :(

As of 6:40 this evening, 9/10 only 30 of the 90 of you have viewed the HW post for tomorrow.  Not sure what the rest of you are waiting for, but you will, indeed, receive a zero with no make up if you do not have the work as directed.

As of this post, all valid Quizlet requests have been approved & entered into Thinkwave.  If you requested to join but don't have an approval, look over the direction because it's likely you're one of the many people who did not follow them the first time. :(  Fix it before 2 pm Tuesday!

See you tomorrow!

IMPORTANT UPDATES: READ ME!!! :)

A few reminders & updates for you:

• As of this post (11:12 am, 9/9) all Quizlet requests have been approved.  If you requested to join and do NOT have an approval (or cannot view your class), you did not follow the directions regarding acceptable user names & your request has been "ignored."  If this is you, you will need to fix it & send me an email that it is now in compliance as Quizlet will not send me another email regarding your request to join.  In addition, someone joined the wrong class (last year's) - you will need to make sure you have requested 2017-2018.  If you sent a request already but still don't have access, check your request OR request to join the correct class.  The due date on this is 9/12, 2 pm.  
• You need to log into Thinkwave (& change your password while you're there) by 9/18, 2 pm.
• Your HWQ (homework quiz) will be at the start of your class.  You will be using your HW (the and-copied notes), anything other than YOUR hand-copied notes will be confiscated & earn a 0.  Late to class = 0 on HWQ, no make-up per policy.
• I recorded all of the signed forms into Thinkwave yesterday afternoon.  There were 3 total.  The breakdown is this: 100 = all is well, than you.  75 = you left parts bank or did not complete the form.  0 = too much was incomplete, your name was missing, I could not read your name, or you never turned it in.  You have one FINAL chance to earn some credit by turning them in BEFORE FIRST PERIOD on Monday.  I will be in 1825.  Anything after the 1st period bell will not receive a grade change.  The change if your forms are compete, is from the 0 currently entered to a 65.  Not sure what you did?  Its in Thinkwave.

Have a great rest of the weekend.  See you Monday!

(PS - I see as of now only SIX of you have even looked at the HW due Monday.  If you do not do your HW, you will likely fail the marking period.  Don't wait until the last minute because I don;t accept excuses!!!)

A note about the links in these posts...

If you can't "click" on the links in the homework posts, be sure you copy & paste them into a new window.  All links are valid, and the "it didn't work when I clicked on it" excuse will earn you a 

0 for that work.  

Fair warning...

TEST TODAY: Wednesday, 9/28 Ch 22 Exam

Your Chapter 22 Exam will be on Wednesday, 9/27.  The Quizlet Review has been open since September 8th.  If you have been in class, paid attention, done your homework, and study you should do very well on the test.  STUDY THE REVIEW IN QUIZLET - it was made using the material on your exam.
