Benchmark tests started today. Many finished but additional time will be needed on Tuesday.
For AE and homework this week students are assigned IXL F.13-16 and L.5-7. This is not listed on the lesson plan.
I will be adding IXL homework credit for H and K activities and two additional grades (a classwork grade and a novel quiz) before the end of the quarter. I am not sure if anything else will be added at this time.
ENR students (2nd period) will have their collaborative project grade added as well!
Have a wonderful spring break!!
