2/9 Homework Update

The latest homework assignment was 3.5 which was due yesterday and today. You can find a copy of it below. Also, you will be able to find the study guide for the chemical reactions test, which is on Thursday and Friday of this week.

Reminder: Homeworks 3.1-3.5 must be turned in on the day the student is taking the test, or they will receive an NC for that assignment (with no chance to make it up). Doing the study guide allows for ONE make up of a homework assignment. If all homeworks have been turned in, it will count for extra credit on the test.

The test will be Thursday, February 10 or Friday, February 11, depending on when your student has science class. Make sure they study!
