HHS 4M

I spent time this weekend marking family sculpture assignments and was trilled with the results. You were incredible creative and on the whole did a terrific jog of using systems theory. I was disappointed, however, that now everyone handed in a project. There are some individuals in our class who have yet to hand in ANYTHING!! If you are one of those people you need to get busy or decide if this is the course for you. I was also disappointed that 7 people choose not to come to write their test on Thursday. You had a week and a half to prepare which is more than sufficient time to be organized.

Here is a look at the upcoming week.
