HOMEWORK: 35% |
The Agenda
has been provided to cover the whole semester. The agenda tasks are also written on the
white board. Class/homework consists
of taking all notes from overhead and white board, defining all bold terms as

expected to complete the tasks as homework.
The Agenda allows you to work ahead.
Always have the phone number of a peer in case you are absent without
your agenda. Study and review your notes every night. *** Big projects must make it to school on
due date or before, with or without you and/or your partners. *** |
