March 19, Scribe Period 3

Class began with morning announcements.

Here is Smith's Weekly Agenda.

Aly collected some money for Warrior Week. Arapahoe will be donating this money to Adam's Camp and Smith has arranged a deal with periods 3 and 5 that whoever raises the most money will get a variety of home baked goods. Keep bringing in your change!

We will be reading A Whole New Mind in the coming weeks. Students who do not wish to purchase a copy of the books can check out a book from Ms. Smith and get a head start on reading over Spring Break. Please only use sticky notes to annotate the class copy books.
