Research Paper
After 3/5, 5 points will be deducted each day that it is late unless each member of the group attaches a coupon.  Turning in after 3/5 may mean that the paper does not get graded in time to go out on 3rd Q grades, but a change of grade will be done so that it will count, but may just appear on the printed grade card.
 


My goal is to get all papers turned in by March 5 graded and put on Skyward so they count as a grade for this quarter.  Should that become an impossible task, the papers will be counted as the first grade of the 4th quarter.

We will be doing some other assignments during this time, but I will keep them low-key and focus on in-class work.

we have started talking about the world governments unit, but no homework.
