Week of April 28

Hi everyone,

Last week was crazy with PSAEs, field trips, and prom setup. Hopefully this week will be a bit more normal. Here is what I have planned:

Computers 2
Students will continue to work on creating newsletters. No outside homework or test this week.

Business Concepts
We will continue covering credit this week. Students will complete a comparison of various credit card offers. Later in the week, we will watch a movie called In Debt We Trust. Study guides 7.3 and 7.4 will be due on Thursday.

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

Week of April 21

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a relaxing and enjoyable spring break. It went by too fast! Here is what I have planned for this week:

Computers 2
We will start working on project 3 in Publisher together. This project covers the creation of newsletters. There will be no outside homework.

Business Concepts
The final day to turn in checking packets is Tuesday. This week we will start a chapter over credit. We will cover installment loans and credit cards. Students can receive extra credit if they bring in a credit card offer that someone in their house has received. All identifying information should be blacked out. Study guides 7.1 and 7.2 will be due on Friday.

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

Week of April 14

Hi everyone,

We can look forward to a short week! I think everyone is ready for a few days off school. Here is what I have planned:

Computers 2
We will review on Monday and take a test on Tuesday over Publisher - project 2. Wednesday will be used as a make up day for any students missing work.

Business Concepts
On Monday, students will work on checking packets. On Tuesday, we will review and on Wednesday, there will be a test over chapter 6. I will also collect the chapter notes. Checking packets will also be due on Wednesday. 

I think that's it this week. I hope everyone has a fantastic break!

Week of April 6

Hi everyone,

Here is what I have scheduled for this week:

Computers 2
Students will continue creating newsletters in Publisher. No test this week.

Business Concepts
Last week, we started working on checking packets. These packets are worth 150 points (equivalent to approximately three tests) and will be completed in class. Students are required to bring a pencil and a pen to class each day to use with the packet. We will work on packets every day this week. They will be due sometime next week before spring break. Chapter study guides will be due this Friday.

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