THIS ASSIGNMENT WILL BE WORTH 2 GRADES:

Grade #1:
**Practice Quizzes – NOT the scores but your following the directions for having Mrs. Wolken
sign off after each quiz, etc.

Grade #2:
**YOUR FINAL EXAM %--Only take the exam once, and then submit as directed above.


**Please note: I am tentatively planning these 2 assignments/gradings as summative
assessments; please follow directions. If at any point during the assignment, you are not
following directions, I will shut off your computer and give you a zero for both grades
(Summative Assessments).


This is THE ONLY CLASS PERIOD that I plan for this activity. You will need to complete as much
as possible. I would recommend NOT wasting time.
