Weekly Update!

Last week of the quarter! Huzzah!

IMPORTANT: Freshmen and sophomores will take the FCAT Reading and Math components on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively. Juniors and seniors should not come to school until noon (12 PM). On Thursday, juniors will be taking the FCAT Science component, but it is a normal school day for everyone else.

To all classes: The IB Literary Magazine could really use some more art of all kinds for its pages. This means painting, digital/graphic art, photography, drawings--even sculptures, if you take a photograph of them. The deadline has already passed, but if you give your art (on a CD or flash drive, or in hard copy format) directly to Mrs. Benson or a trusted LitMag rep, we will work hard to find a place for it. Thanks! --Autumn


This week's agenda:

Monday -

  • IB English IV (Benson) - Soft deadline: the Second Beloved Commentary through page 147 in the new red book with gold text. Stop at "The last of the Sweet Home men..." This may be turned in today or Thursday, but remember that the third is due absolutely Friday, and there is a test Thursday. See below.
  • IB Chemistry III (Nagel) - Redox titration lab due today. It's an IA being graded for data collection/processing and conclusion/evaluation, so watch your analysis and presentation, especially error. The Redox assessment statements are also due today!!
  • IB Theatre I (Mrs. Brooks) - Bibliographies for the research investigations will be due. Note that the number of sources was changed from ten (10) to five (5) since UWF's library is not open this weekend. Make sure that you eventually get more sources than Monday's required five.
  • AP English Literature and Composition (Mr. Murray) - Pages 3-24 of Chronicle of a Death Foretold should be read.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - The 1999 AP review will be due. Be sure to round to three (3) decimal places if rounding is necessary.
  • AP U.S. History (Mr. Rose) - There will be a document-based question (DBQ) test on the Gilded Age. In your studying, be sure to emphasize women and industry in general.
  • AP Chemistry (Mrs. Smith) - The quiz consisting of 2 AP-style free response questions will be due FOR A GRADE.
Tuesday -

Wednesday -

  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - Juniors and Seniors, come to school. There will be an activity today!

Thursday -

  • IB English IV (Benson) - Beloved commentary #2 due if not turned in Monday. Test on pages 1-147 in red book. This will cover the realms of the first two commentaries. Also be prepared to answer questions relating to the Toni Morrison video interview and the 21-page essay we read on trees. Heads up!
  • IB Chemistry III (Nagel) - Puddle electrolysis lab. It's short and an easy write-up, so we'll be spending part of class afterward doing that.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - The IB review will be due. Be sure to round to three (3) significant figures if rounding is necessary.
  • AP Chemistry (Mrs. Smith) - 7th period will take the test on Chapters 17 and 18. Be sure to complete the homework for studying and also because it will be due at the beginning of class. Outlines of the chapters, as always, can be done for extra credit.
Friday -
  • IB English IV (Benson) - Beloved Commentary #3 (through the rest of Part One) due today.
  • IB World Geography (Mr. Sutton) - INTERNAL ASSESSMENTS WILL BE DUE! DON'T FORGET! Remember that the word limit is 1500. Be sure to follow Sutton's advice from your rough draft and good, good luck!
  • IB Theatre I (Mrs. Brooks) - The question for the research investigation should be decided by this point.
  • AP English Literature and Composition (Mr. Murray) - A journal entry will be due for Chtonicle of a Death Foretold. You can pick any of the four.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - The final draft of calculator lab #11 will be due.
