B DAY: M, W, F
US History
Algebra II
English

A DAY: Tu, Th
French
Chemistry

 What Happened Today:
SHEA'S 17th BIRTHDAY!

 US History - Shea was happy to learn that her essay was due at 11:59pm on Tue, not Mon.  This was welcome news given that she had to study for her QUEST test w/ Ms R and for her French quiz.  No additional HW for Wed.

 Algebra - Shea showed 2.8 Item#4 and the Rule of 4 assignments to Ms. B.  Shea said Ms. B told her her work was disorganized.  The passage below from an email I sent Ms B explains why Shea shows so much of her work.  Also, while the work was a bit volumonous, it was fairly well organized (esp 2.8).:
...When she is motivated and engaged, as she has been since the start of the 4th quarter, she tends to do more than is required to make sure she does not miss any steps.  That was the case for problems 13-20 on 2.8 Item#4, where she showed all her factoring work and then added a separate page for the work on the x-intercepts, vertices and the y-intercepts.  While it was a lot of extra work, it was fairly orderly by Shea's standards.  And I believe her Rule of 4 worksheet was somewhat orderly, though she may have shown you some of the extra pages that she went over with Ms. Ryan which were a bit more jumbled...


Shea put in another hour + in one final study session for the QUEST exam.

English - no HW, continues work on podcast?

Work Completed on Monday:
1) Studied for QUEST w/Ms. Ryan

Very good score on practice test (75/78):




2) Studied for French Quiz
