Math 65. Problem sets 93 – 96 will be due as homework this week. They will test on Thursday.

All testing in my classes will occur this Thursday as follows:

- Spelling. They will test this week on their individualized spelling list.
- –Open Court spelling words (remember that their individualized spelling list may bear little resemblance to the Open Court spelling words)
- Vocabulary.
