No bellwork today.  Students took the first part of the Chapter 2 Test which covered problems from Sec 2-5.  Part 2 of the test will be Monday.  This part covers all of the equation solving skills.

Students who are still working on passing the six equation solving quizzes we have been working on the past few week need to pass all of these quizzes before they can take Part 2 of the test.

Students who have passed all six equation solving quizzes will take Part 2 of the test on Monday.

Hwk #15 is due on Monday.  This homework is a sheet that introduces the topic of solving inequalities (Chapter 3).
