If you have not made a chapter one vocabulary list, you need to do that. We have a quiz over the vocabulary found in chapter one on 10/23. All of the vocabulary for the chapter is found on the last page of the chapter which is page 53.

Some students find that making flashcards helps them to study. If you have been neglecting studying, you should start studying right now. Studying only the night before will not be enough.

I recommend that you are practicing for 30 minutes 4 times a week. You can read over your old assignments, read over notes that you have taken, or read the textbook. Saying things out loud is good practice too.

The homework for tonight is a green sheet. It has sentence activities on one side and a number crossword on the other.

Tonight's homework is found on page 508 of your textbook. You are to do the whole page.

Please use your class time wisely. Thank you to those of you who do this. If you are one of the students that I have asked more than once to get to work, please note that this will count against you in your participation grade.

Also, stay in your assigned seat, unless we have an activity that requires us to get up and move around. And, for the fourth time, finish your food and drink before class.
