Today is Monday 2/23!

Good Morning and Happy Monday!  We are into the final week of February!!  What better way to kick off the week than a blog post?!?!  Before we get into my class, please take a moment for your blog this morning and address the following questions:

• Can you believe it!! Although second semester is undoubtedly longer than the 1st, grades are already posted for the 1st quarter progress period and we are less than 4 weeks from the end of the quarter!! In SchoolLoop, check all of your progress grades.
• What grades did you receive in each course? (make a list) 
• Next to the grade you received, list one thing you could have done to improve your grade in each class. If you received an A, how would you explain your success to a classmate?
• Finally, what is your current term GPA?  In addition, how are you feeling about this GPA? About school? About finishing off the 2014-15 school year strong?

Thanks for your thoughtful response.  After completing the blog today here is what is on the agenda:

1. Finish watching the documentary: "Is Walmart Good for America." The worksheet for this movie is located at http://goo.gl/3hQ55i and you can actually access the video at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/video/flv/generic.html?s=frol02s489q71&continuous=1
2. Remember, in addition to the short online multiple choice assignment, there is also a handout I passed out that needs to be completed on blue paper.  If you misplaced that handout, you can always login to Schoology and print out a copy for yourself!

Remember, you need to be great about keeping up with our daily assignments this quarter.  The first quarter progress grading period is now over - nothing else can be submitted - but moving forward it will really benefit you to use your time in class as best you can so you stay up to date with everything and have a successful finish to the year!!

The above are due today at the end of class.  In addition, if you finish early, don't forget that there was a blog on Friday that you could still do today AND you could also make sure you recorded your most recent stock prices :)
