Everyone:

I'll be in the MMLC today from 2:40-4:00 for anyone that needs help with anything (school related, preferably, but life problems are okay too)!

Modern World History Students, TODAY is the last day to turn in you "Article of the Week." Make sure you get it done! If you need help, be sure to come see me and ask for it!

Oh, and don't email me at 11:00pm and think I'm going to respond.... I'm asleep at that point, usually. So for on;y 3 of you have completed the assignment!


Oh, and for the kids who constantly ask WHY we are doing this and "is this going to be on the test?" Watch the first minute of this video... listen carefully. You should probably watch it 4-5 times. It might be the most beneficial 5 minutes of your day!
