Homework for Friday, November 2, 2007

Students in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd periods have no new homework for tonight.  However, all students can go to the SkillsTutor website and practice math skills assigned there.  All students should practice English every day to improve their spoken English.  Also, students should read English daily.  I would suggest that students check books out of the public library to read at home.  Additionally, students can read to younger brothers and sisters to practice their reading skills.

ReminderMonday, November 5 and Tuesday, November 6 are student holidays.  There is no school for students on these days.
