Snodgrass Slushies!

The Snodgrass Slushies did a fabulous job selling magazines! By the end of the magazine drive, we had the most magazines of all of the Lakeview Homebases! Nice work, Slushies!!

First period students should be finishing their graphing project. Since the quiz Friday took longer than I expected, and I had promised students class time to work on the graphing project, I decided to extend the project one more day. So the graphing project is now due Tuesday, October 5. Next week we will start work on integers.

Students in periods 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 will be working with mean, median, mode and range next week.
