Week of May 23-27
Hi everyone,
This will be my last schedule post for the school year. Business math and web page 2 finished on Monday when the seniors took their exams, so business concepts is the only class that needs an update.
On Monday and Tuesday, students will work in groups to create PowerPoints titled "The Ten Most Important Things I Learned in Business Concepts." This assignment is worth 40 points and will be the last grade taken, other than the final exam. I will also begin collecting textbooks on Monday.
On Wednesday, I will pass back all chapter tests taken during the semester. We will correct them in class and I will go over which questions are likely to be on the exam. On Thursday, we will finish correcting exams, if needed, and then calculate averages. Friday is the first exam day.
The final exam is comprised of 150 questions taken from the chapter tests. All questions are either multiple choice, matching, or true/false. There are no surprises. All chapter tests will need to be turned back into me the day of the final exam.
I will post grades later this afternoon.
Thanks for reading the blog this year. I hope it has been a valuable resource for you. Have a great summer break!

Week of May 16 - 20
Hi everyone,
Here are the grades as of May 13:
On Monday, all students in business math and web page 2 will take the final exam. This will be the end of these classes for the year and there will not be any further updates. If you would like to know your child's grade on the exam or for the semester, please e-mail me.
For business concepts, there will not be any further tests this year. We will be completing activities in class that emphasize what we have learned throughout the semester. We will make posters about some of the most common financial mistakes people make and we will be playing "Financial Football" online. All work should be completed in class for the rest of the school year. Most grades will be participation based.
I'll post more next weekend about the final exam and the review process.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Week of May 9 - 13
Hi everyone,
Next week is the last full week for seniors. Seniors are scheduled to take their exams on Monday, May 16. Business math has one junior and web page 2 has three juniors. These students will take their exams on the same day as the seniors. Here is the schedule for the upcoming week:
Business Concepts
On Monday, chapter 19 study guides are due. Students will read an article about investing basics and complete a worksheet. On Tuesday, we will review for the test. On Wednesday, we will take a test over chapter 19. On Thursday and Friday, we will complete an online simulation about budgeting. Seniors in business concepts will receive all of the chapter tests from the semester to use as study guides for their exam on May 16th.
Business Math
We will review with exam study guides Monday-Thursday. On Friday, students will take the concepts portion of the semester exam. On Monday, May 16, they will complete the math problem portion of the test.
Web Page 2
On Monday and Tuesday, students will work on a redesign of the high school's main sports page. On Wednesday, students will receive a study guide for the final exam and we will review the rest of the week.
I think that's it for this week. I will have grades posted sometime before Monday.
Have a great weekend!
