No Homework Day...Basically

I didn't get to blog yesterday (sorry) because I had a doctor's appointment (just a checkup).

I say "basically" because you can always study your spelling and vocabulary words. We'll have a symmetry and transformations test tomorrow, too. If you need to study for that, look at p. 414 and study every set except Set D. And Monday will be the Science test. Don't forget to study for that.
Welcome to our new student...Javonte!
Love, Mrs. H
