Here's the calendar for the next month and what we will be doing - be aware that this is subject to change and revision!
For the rest of class, I asked students to finish finding a topic to research and begin writing Part A, which is due on Google Classroom next class (on Wednesday). Tomorrow, all 10th graders will be taking the Pre-ACT at Westview and there are no scheduled classes. Good luck with it and see everyone again on Wednesday!
