• TenMarks - UPDATE: I assigned the final two domains (Fractions and Geometry) for completion by testing. Thought these do NOT count toward their grade, it will help identify areas in which the student needs to do more review before testing. We will continue to have time each day, as long as we have access to a computer cart, to work on them in class. However, they should be doing them at home!

4.   Music tomorrow
