TUESDAY: (4/1 - independent work)

HW - redo those TEST B & C questions you missed
WEDNESDAY: (4/2 - in class) - umm, Math Meet, so no real class
THURSDAY: (4/3 - in class) hand in your corrections from Chapter 7 tests B & C
- review Chapters 1& 2 for cumulative exam
FRIDAY: (4/4 - independent work)
Review Chapter 3, 4, & 5 for cumulative exam: go through the textbook. Reread the definitions, look at the Solved Examples at the beginning of each Section . Make note of any new CONTENT (as in, we didn't cover it or you forgot it) - content, not exercises. For example, if we didn't do a technology exercise, but it uses content you are familiar with, don't note this as being something to work on. Make sense? If not, write to me and I will get back to as soon as possible. I should be able to get back to you fairly quickly tomorrow. Go as far as you reasonably can. There is NO expectation that you will get through to the end of Chapter 5. Do not rush yourself. Do a thorough review, but don't dwell on things you know.
For HW, over the weekend, work on these questions from the book:
8.1: Read p. 489-491. Do questions 3, ,7, 11, 15, 19, 23, 27, 31, 35, 39, 58
