SCHEDULE OF EVENTS (first rotation)

- Ortega: After a 20-minute SSR, we were introduced to how our iSearch papers would be tackled and how our writing them would be organized in increments - with multiple due dates per coming week till the final due date.  The essay is a testament to all we have learned and may well still learn from our senior projects and their role in our lives and motivations in life...and is one of the final installments to senior year before we plan our own wanderings.  Make senior project meaningful to you and you will do fine...today, we were allowed time with which to write the intro to our essays.

A still very important reminder for this week and for those relevant 

- Pigott: We, those comfortable that is, discussed our happenings over spring break.  We then delved into yet another trigonometry bundle of material, in which there existed trigonometric identities and the like.  You might want to familiarize yourselves with these reciprocal, quotient, and Pythagorean identities as they are merely statements that can be used to simplify whatever hurdles come our way...also, keep the unit circle and its design (these being foundations to whatever we do learn) in your conscience mind at all times - a pop quiz is always possible.

- Rivas:  Free time recommended for board game brainstorming and, hopefully, execution.  There were also due dates listed on the board asking for updates on how our board games' meat is developing and what cooking stage it is currently undergoing.

- Holt:  We took a Kahoot quiz on the notes we took last week, and then he explained the ME formula in another way for us to understand the new lab he's gonna have us work on later on this week.

--> don't forget to keep up to date with emailed notes from ASB
