HOMEWORK SCHEDULE SEPTEMBER

Here is an outline of the homework for the month of September. Each student received this information in a calendar/table format. PHM means Prentice Hall Mathbook (blue book). Novel refers to the book we are reading in class. Book reports should be done on books other than those read in class. There are many available in class or at the library. Questions can be forwarded to otisking@hotmail.com. Please pardon my attempts at abbreviations.
Thanks. Mr. King
