Students submitted their KB9 World Cities and their Excel #2 Charts and Graphs.  When both of these assignments have been turned in students are moving on to a Quick and Easy Excel #3 Math.  With the crazy MEAP schedule this assignment will be due next meeting.

 

EXTRA CREDIT:  Hand Sanitizer and Tissues are desperately needed in the Computer Lab.  I have Clorox Wipes for the keyboards, but to keep our students healthy (and me) please send in tissues and hand sanitizer.  I will accept a total of 5 extra credit supplies each marking period.
