60 Minutes on Sunday

Here is a report on where our jobs are going and why we have tax issues in the USA.

As we have been talking about in class, where will we be getting jobs in the future and what is our country going to look like if our corporate outsourcing continues? Good jobs will still require math!

sorry for the ad, I couldn't figure a way to remove it. If anyone knows Java, please let me know how it can be fixed.

Test Corrections (re-take)

Both Algebra and Geometry students have an opportunity to do a re-take on their last test because of the low performance  in both classes.  In order to take advantage of this opportunity, you will need to complete the following steps:

All need to be accomplished at school in a math classroom

1. On a separate sheet of paper, redo the incorrect problems on your test correctly.  When finished, you will meet with me and we will go over your test
2. You will complete a 'new' review assignment.  When finished, you will meet with me and we will go over the assignment. 
3. Retake the chapter test.  You may not do this step the same day as step 2.  This test will be averaged in with your first test, regardless of performance on retake.

Here is a great opportunity to raise your comprehension level while also raising your grade.  Please take advantage of it.  If you don't, please do not ask me for extra credit opportunities the last few weeks of the quarter or semester, because there won't be.

Any questions, please let me know.  These retakes need to be finished before spring break (March 11, 2011).
