Thursday HW

4.  Cereal Boxes due on Monday May 28.
5.  Measurement test on Thursday May 31.

The Probability unit test was marked and the class average was 75 %.  The remaining tests and assignments should be returned to students next week in a package.

Wednesday HW
1.  Math Textbook pages 356-57 # 1-7.
2.  Math HW Book pages 138-39.
3.  Cereal Box due in completed form on Monday May 28.  Each student received verbal feedback and recommendations today in class, as well as a judgement about progress.  The most common feedback was that not enough panels had been designed given the amount of class time invested and that colour needed to be added to pencil outlines.  No box should be handed in with pencil markings as the main form of design.

Tuesday HW
1.  Finish mini-essay on Smoking.
2.  Math HW book pages 136-37.
3.  Math Textbook pages 353-54 # 1 to 7.
