Notes:

• The book log was collected on Wednesday (instead of Tuesday), due to time 
• Culture projects are coming along. Students turned in written portion on Wednesday and will turn in final pictures on Thursday. At this time, pictures and words will be incorporated into the book that students spent Wednesday creating.
• Friday is the last day to turn in late or missing work, or make up or redo a test or assignment before the end of the semester.
