Pinnacle Internet Viewer (PIV)-- Please make a plan with your child to check their grades each week.  You will need to sign your child's planner every Friday that you have viewed the planner and PIV.  If you are experiencing problems logging in, keep trying.  Sometimes if a lot of people are viewing, it can take a few times.  Please be patient and thank you for making the effort.  All students have their login and password for PIV in their planners.

MATH--No Homework. We are working on similar triangles in class.

Students should be spending 30 minutes a night reviewing and working on math.  They should work on assignments--current and redo, review notes and do practice problems.  There are many practice websites listed on my webpage.

Students have been reminded that for the remainder of the year, only 2 missing/late assignments can be turned in during a marking period.  Students can turn in as many redo assignments as they need.  Absent work turns into late work 2 days after return.

MISSING AN ASSIGNMENT?  Extra copies of assignments can be downloaded on the team website under Math.

=================================================================

SCIENCE--I am missing several Blue science books on Light and Sound.  If you find one at your house please return it to room 210.  Thank you.
