We will continue working through project 8 in the textbook, which we started last week. Towards the end of the week, we should start the Dreamweaver review project, where students make a website for a museum that they create.

I think that's it for this week. Have a good one!

Week of February 21-25

Hi everyone,

Here are the grades for this week:














We have a few weeks left in the third quarter. I honestly don't know the actual last day. It was pushed back due to the snow days. But, it is getting close and it's really time to start that final push to improve grades.

Here is the schedule for this week:

Business Concepts
All classes will take a test over chapter 9 (careers) on Monday. I will also collect notes that day. On Tuesday, we will start a chapter on taxes. Students will learn how to fill out a 1040EZ. This is a great time to be covering taxes with income tax day looming and many students with part-time jobs. There should be no outside homework this week.

Business Math
We will begin covering sections 5-8 of chapter 6. There will be homework assigned each day.

We are covering AP elements and behaviors. Students will create their own webpage with these elements. The store projects were finished last week and I was very impressed with all of the creativity!

I think that's it for this week. Have a good one!

Here is the schedule for the upcoming week:


Business Concepts
On Friday, we started career research. We will work on this all day on Monday. Study guides 9.1 and 9.2 will be due on Tuesday. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we will take notes over sections 9.3 and 9.4. These study guides will be due on Thursday. On Thursday, we will review and on Friday, we will take a test over chapter 9. I will also collect notes that day.

Due to the freshmen and sophomore tests planned for Wednesday and Thursday, this schedule may be slightly different for 9th hour business concepts, with notes being taken on Monday and Tuesday, career research on Wednesday/Thursday, review on Friday, and the test on Monday. I'm not sure how many kids this will affect that hour, so I'm going to be flexible.


Business Math
On Monday, we will complete a worksheet over section 6.4. On Tuesday, we will review and on Wednesday, we will have a test over sections 1-4 of chapter 6. On Thursday and Friday we will work on the reading guides for the remaining sections of chapter 6.

This week, we will start project 6 in Dreamweaver, over AP elements. All work will be completed in class.

I think that's it for this week. Have a good one!

Here is the schedule for the upcoming week. It's basically last week's schedule all over again!

Business Concepts
I saw 3rd and 4th hours last Monday. All study guides were turned due and turned in. Since I did not see 9th hour, 15.1 and 15.2 study guides will be due on this Monday. 15.3 study guides will be due on Tuesday. All classes will read an article and complete a worksheet on Monday (we will do this in 9th hour if time permits after we take the notes from last Monday). On Tuesday, we will review for the test and on Wednesday we will take the test. I will also collect notes on that day.

Business Math
We will start chapter 6, completing a section each day. There will be daily homework.

Students will begin work on their store templates.

I think that's it for this week. Have a good one!
