Still Doing Introductions

Periods 1, 3, and 5 were yesterday and periods 4 and 6 are today, but you are both doing the same thing. Here's the agenda:

1. Seating Chart! Please sit in your correct seat to help me learn your names and take attendance
2. Turn in your safety contract. There is NO QUIZ on this because I needed time for...
3. Pre-Test! I found out on Monday that you need to take a pre-test. We'll take it again at the end of the year. The pre-test does NOT affect your grade (100% for just taking it).
4. Fire evacuation practice. We just walk out to the meet-up point during evacuations.
5. Observations vs. Inferences activity. A short activity to review the difference between observations and inferences. Points for participating but nothing to turn in.

No homework for tonight. On Thursday we start our physics content!

Finals

By now almost everyone that is going to take their electricity test has, and you've gotten it back. Seniors have turned in their finals (and so have some non-seniors). Everyone else, your finals are due on your official finals days:

Tuesday: periods 5 and 6
Wednesday: period 2
Thursday: periods 3 and 4

We'll be watching a movie during the final class, but you can keep working on stuff right up until the end. I'm still accepting work, so keep it coming! Seniors, I have to submit your grades on Tuesday, so that's your due date for everything.
