Welcome to trimester 2!!

A few reminders...

1. Bathroom pass: blue stickers can ask to go at any time (though may not be granted permission to leave the room numerous times in one class period, or during certain parts of the period)...use bathroom privileges responsibly.  All other students must have teacher sign planner on page 19 and are limited to 3 passes per trimester...this includes retrieving items from your locker.
2. Reading Logs: as a holiday present, students have the next 4 weeks (2 week of school, 2 weeks of break) free of reading log responsibilities...however, science fiction/fantasy books need to be completed by December 16th which will require that you read the book at home.
3. Lunch: 4th period students now have 2nd lunch!

Check out the doc camera video that I made in about 9 minutes, as a test for future blog entries...please view the video as it takes you step by step through the first three pages of the How to Packet...I don't know that I will continue to use video in this way, but it was fun to try it (not knowing at all what I was doing...as you can see from the "roughness" of the video, which is not edited)
