Homework for TONIGHT! 1.4.12

Comm Arts: Write a 4 - 5 sentence introduction to your persuasive essay.  The introduction must do two two things:
1. Introduce the topic (nationwide school budget crunch causing schools to look for ways to save money leads to schools to try a four day school week...this is brings some good and some bad for schools.)
2. share your opinion - 4-day week is GOOD or 4-day week is BAD!
- Introductions can be emailed to me at: hchanin@lonerockschool.org OR handwritten and turned in at school.

Math: finish lesson 47
