Students and Parents! I am attempting to create a page – for each class unit…look at the top right hand corner of the blog…
For example, anything pertaining to CP Algebra – I will post in their current unit “Mission Possible.”
Anything pertaining to Algebra I – I will post in their current unit “The Crow & the Pitcher.”
I am experimenting to try and find the most efficient / organized method to make our class blog more user friendly. I will post unit organizers / class notes etc. on those pages.
Thank you for your patience and please continue to share feedback and suggestions to make this a better resource for you!
