You can still submit stuff after that 5/9 due date... just subtract 10% from your score each day for  POSTER, HTML and POWERPOINT.  Any of the older stuff is worth 50% if you submit anything that was missing.

The rest of the Exam is due FRIDAY 5/9.Please note: I will be in by 8AM Tuesday morning, but the Tuesday PM helpclass is cancelled.I will be in by 8AM Thursday morning, but Friday morning is Knights.During the day, come any time EXCEPT "F" period; also, although I will be here for "A" period, I may have to cover a class in another room, so that would not be your best choice.  Be extra quiet during Ms DeGeorge's class "C" and "E" - remember, she doesn't HAVE to let you stay.Please check the class website for EXAM GRADES: and EXTRA EXAM POINTS: Finally, don't forget the rest of your 5 summaries, due by May 15th.

You should have gotten the Exam Review Sheet from the shared directory, but it is posted at the bottom of this page in the files section.

Additionally, I have also posted there copies of the original JANUARY.XLS, TOM'S.XLS and FOLLOW-UP.XLS in case you want to practice them at home.

Best practice for PowerPoint is to try the Extra Credit by using all the items listed on your review sheet.  I will only grade the extra credit if you submit (at right) to GroupFusion by Wednesday (yes, that's a change) at noon.  So if you use it to practice, but don't want it graded, then just don't send it!

Daisies are an easy to grow perennial that brightens the flower garden and is great for indoor vases and arrangements.  While there are dozens of varieties, the most popular are the Shasta Daisy (shown above) and African Daisies. Daisies are among the most popular of flowers of both gardeners. And they are perfect for beginning gardeners and those whose thumb is not too green!

Try this new search engine:

You choose a non-profit organization (Maybe Seton Hall Prep?) and they become part of the list of organizations that get donations based on the number of users the GOODSEARCH engine collects.  No fee...

See your green sheet, or directions at the other class website.  Submit your completed file at right ----->

I will begin by grading the ones that are submitted, but expect me to grade yours ready-or-not on December 21 AM.

If you didn't submit it yet, don't worry, I submitted the one that was in  your APPS directory on 12/21.  If you are still working at home, submit it when you're done.  If I didn't grade the first one yet, I will grade the one you send. 

Ok, OK, so you were ALL right & I was wrong.  The MARGINS for PET NEWSLETTER are:
LEFT & RIGHT = 1.25"     TOP & BOTTOM = 1.00"

Please make the change on your sheet and in your document, even if you already handed in your paper.

Please submit your file at right, and I will grade those this weekend (12/15-16) at home.  But ready-or-not, I will start to grade the rest of them 12/18 AM, even if you didn't hand your paper in by then.

Congratulations on the overall excellence of your exams.

Please remember when writing to me or ANY teacher...

I am your teacher, not your friend.  Do not use slang.  Use proper grammer and spelling and punctuation.  And have a proper tone of respect in the emails.

This ALSO applies to any assignments on POSTING BOARDS.

Finally, stop with the complaints and the whining.  You KNOW that you have HOMEWORK EVERYDAY: READ GROUP FUSION!  You also know that "I DIDN'T KNOW" is NEVER an acceptable excuse.

The Internet has been around since the 1960's.

Banner ads first appeared in 1994.

E-mail has been around longer than the World Wide Web.

"Surfing" the Web - this phrase was coined in 1992.

Lynx was one of the earliest browsers from 1992.  It was used for text-based navigation.  Now most people use either Netscape's Navigator or Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

The average computer user blinks 7 times a minute.

Points will be posted after the due dates.

I will no longer accept any postings between the hours of 1 and 5 AM on a school night.  You should be sleeping!  If you post during those hours, you will receive no points.
Postings after-due-date will receive no points.

Perhaps you'd like answers to the following questions:

1. What happens if work is submitted late?

2. What materials should I bring everyday?
   

3. Can I re-do assignments?
   
4. Can I do my assignments at home & bring them in or e-mail them?
   
5. When are Help Classes?
   
6. Can I use the computers at other times?
   
7. What about surfing the Web and playing games?
   
8. Are we allowed to talk while we are working on the computers?
