Unit 7 Review for Test

2011-02-17T21:14:00.001-05:00

click here for Answer Key to Worksheets 26-27

Just for fun, I will give ONE (count 'em, that's 1) extra credit point to anyone that draws a picture of Jamie next to their name on the test tomorrow. I just want to see if anyone is paying attention. You CANNOT SAY anything about this before or during the test, as that will INVALIDATE the extra credit point for everyone.

I am doing this experiment to test my apathy theorem and the don't care corollary. Next month, I may post the answer key for a UNIT TEST in advance, as an even more dramatic proof of my theorem.

Let me know if you think this is a good idea.

Good night! (Goooooddddd niiiiiigggghhhhhhttttttttt <= echo)

Mid-Term Review (snow day)

2011-02-02T09:32:00.003-05:00

The Mid-Term exam will start, at your option, as early as 7:30am Thursday morning... you may come early to the building and I will be in room 220. If you come to school at the regular time, you may also report directly to my room, I will contact your homeroom teacher for attendance purposes. If you fail to exercise either of these two "early start" options that is your problem. The test will end at 9:30am - PENCILS DOWN.

IF WE HAVE A DELAYED OPENING, I will break the test into two parts. The first part will be completed during the first block of our shortened day. (If) When you come into school for the delayed opening you may come directly to my room to get a head-start on the test. I will give the second part of the test on Monday during our regular class time.

Do not forget to bring your GEOMETRY BIBLES!
