Class Assignment

Friday 16 December 2011
We took the test on lessons 21-27.  I hope each and every one of you has a beautiful and blessed Christmas season.  If you are traveling, I pray that your trip is stress free and uneventful and that you make it there and back safely.  I pray for each of you that your Christmas is everything you want it to be. I want everyone to remember that we only have Christmas because our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, was born.  I thank Him every day for each of you and the blessings that you are in my life,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Monday 9 January 2012
If you want: you can complete the PreTest for Lesson 28.  You do NOT have to though.

Today the mobiles got hung.  Thanks, Spencer and Luke!  You did a great job! We corrected our homework, reviewed for our test and attempted to finish the castle.  It looks pretty good!  The test we are going to take on Friday: please remember what I told you in class about studying.  Write out all the information for each topic on your study sheet or a piece of notebook paper.  Next read those notes over 3 times.  Then ask someone in your house to call out the items to you.  The ones you don't know, repeat the process.  Your test scores will come up if you will just try this!  Bring your notebooks and memory cards to class on Friday.  I am taking them up and will give them back to you on the 10th.  Do not bring your Wall of Fame.
