Chapter 22 Packet Questions from Today

While I did find the Chapter 22 Video Packet after school today, I cannot find  post for you (from this year) with a link to those videos, so I am not counting it

Ricardo Amaya...

Your binder is in our classroom.  You can pick it up before 7:25 in you need if for other classes (it is on the heater by the windows) or when you come to class Thursday if it is only for Global.

RAK Wall Reminders

Just a reminder that the "RAK Wall" is open for business any day I'm in school.  See the original post for details.  You can take an index card before the stat of class & return it either at the end of class OR the next day.  Remember your kind deed does not have to take place in school, but it would be nice if it did!

PSAT/SAT Day is October 16th!

Remember, Wednesday 10/16 is a regular school day...and you will take the PSAT if in 11th grade or the SAT if in 12th grade 
(goes by credits earned.)
  
My understanding is the PSAT you $17 while the SAT costs $50-65.  The District is paying these fees for EVERYONE.  This is NOT a "blow off school day."  This is an opportunity to take these exams for FREE.

You are required to bring pencils & a calculator to the exam.  Very few pencils will be available and no calculators will be provided for the PSAT (they WILL give you a calculator to use if you are a 12th grader taking the SAT.)  If you do not bring a calculator to the PSAT, you will not have one for the math portion of the exam.

This is a GREAT opportunity to see where your weakness is - if you have any - & start to work toward a higher score for the SAT.

You will be released after the exam is over and "regular buses" will take you home.  Be on the lookout for a letter sent home by Mr. Callan & those annoying "robo calls" to remind you of what to do.  Pay attention to you 1st & 2nd period teachers Thursday as they will have your room assignments for the exam.

Test is till tomorrow

Your Chapter 22 Exam is still tomorrow, as scheduled.

I have gone through each of your Quizlet accounts and see that very few of you have prepared for the exam as of this post.

Keep in mind hat your actions will determine what we do in class, not the rewards you wrote Thursday.

See you tomorrow.

Period 7

I was able to read your responses to my question before I left school Thursday.  I am pleased to say that you are unanimous in wanted to change our ways to be more successful.  Now, however, it's time to prove that to me.

We are still in Ch 23 Sec 2.  Should you come to class unprepared with any Ch 23 notes (or any other notes moving forward), you will have thrown your last chance away.  No one should be in our class any more without their notes, highlighters, handouts, pens, & HW.  Everyone should show several rounds of completed study in Quizlet.

This is the only way for you to prove to me that you're serious, and it starts Monday. 

There are no more lates.  No more missing work.  No more "I can't find it, didn't do it, don't have it" responses.

No. More.

If there is just one more instance of any of those for you, you have chosen "the other way," which is clearly not working for you.

I am cheering for you to succeed. 

See you Monday.
