Term 2 is on like Donkey Kong!

Welcome to the second part of the course.  To lay out again what I went over in class:

1) The pace is about to pick up.  So brace yourselves.

2) In order to complete the material, I will be placing a greater level of responsibility on you to read and remember on your own.  So those of you who are not doing the reading, you have been warned.

3) There will be reading quizzes.  I will not be going over what you read at night unless you have specific questions about it.  Instead, I will give you a brief quiz to ascertain that you did, in fact, read the selection the night before. They will not be announced.  Starting next week, you should just assume that you will be seeing a quiz if you have a reading assignment.

4) Re-writes are still possible, HOWEVER, you will now be assigned a day on which you will come after school to complete the re-write.  It will be on the same question, but you will not be allowed to use any materials, and you will have a specific time in which to complete the essay (45 minutes as opposed to 55 minutes)

For homework tonight, read pages 549-555 in the textbook.  No quiz, but we won't be discussing the content in class.
