Monday: Remediation: We will go over remediation for the Chapter 1 test. I am requiring all students to work on remediation in class today. Remediation is due Monday 10/9. Remember, remediation is 2 parts; first students can do the remediation worksheet for half credit back on the corrected problems. Next students can retake the assessment for full credit back on correct problems. Retesting can only be done during after school tutoring on Tuesday and Thursday. If students are interested in retesting, they will need to complete the remediation worksheet as soon as possible so they have time to retest.
