Collected Parent notification forms and signed syllabus forms.

Checked for book covers.

Asked if there were any questions on the review problem sheet. Very few students even attempted the problems.

Took students to computer lab, gave them Quia user names and passwords and had them explore my Quia site. Also had them access the Chris Hamper site and try some of those problems.

Came back to the classroom with about 25 minutes left. Students worked on problem sheet.

Tomorrow we will review Vernier equipment. Thursday we will start new material.
