Ok so I was on tumblr, and I found this! This is a photo - he painted his face, hair, and clothes, like what the heck!

Jordan's Sketchbook

The picture files are too big to send via email, so I've posted them to the blog.  Please let me know if they are legible enough.

Review Guides posted

Check the TypePad blog for the review guides.  A Review Power Point has also been posted, so you should have plenty to help you with studying for the Exam!

Monday we'll hear from the Africa and Japan groups.  Those of you who have checked the grades, you'll find that your ABET group grade is posted.  Remember, that's your grade WITHOUT the essay (due tomorrow).  Once you turn in your essay, I will grade that and add to your ABET grade (worth 15 points!).  See you tomorrow!

Change of Plans

Slight change to the Unit 10 Q-cards.  These were on the "due list" for tomorrow (Friday) before the group presentations continue.  So here's the change of plans...

Your Unit 10 Q-cards will not be graded separately, but rather should be turned in with your Q-card Binder.  Remember, you can turn this in any time up until Tuesday, but the sooner you turn it in, the sooner you get it back.  This is an invaluable tool for studying for the final. Don't forget to visit the TypePad blog for details about the Q-card binder!

See you all in class tomorrow.  The remaining four groups need to ready to present ( you never know who will be selected!) beginning at 8:20 SHARP.  Have a good night!

Tons of great information was just posted on the TypePad blog...check it out!

Final Unit of the semester

The Power Points and Homework sheet for the final unit of the semester have been posted to the typepad blog!

Remember, you will be turning in ALL of your Q-cards to date in one 3-ring binder as part of your final grade, so you should be getting those ready ASAP.  If you worked with a partner on some/all of the chapters, you will need to EACH have your OWN copy to turn in!

See you all tomorrow in class!  Only 3 weeks to go!

Test this week

Good evening, guys! 

I have an offer for those of you who have a lot of tests on Friday.  If this is you and you don't want to have our test on Friday as well, you are welcome to take the test Thursday after school.  If you choose this option, you need to make sure your Q-cards and readings/videos are finished by Thursday in class.  You do NOT want to be seeing material for the first time during class and then be testing on it that afternoon. 

I have one confirmed student for Thursday afternoon so far.  If you'd like to take me up on this offer, please let me know by Wednesday during class so that we an arrange a time for Thursday.

Have a good night and happy studying!
