Today's Quote:

'The secret is to never lose sight of the simple, everyday miracles in life. Good food, literature, laughter, music, compelling conversation, nature, and art. Look for them in every day, and even when it feels like your whole world is unravelling, you will never be too far from a needle and thread.
~ Beau Taplin 

Recap:
Students who correct ALL the mistakes on their returned papers will receive 10 points more. Make your corrections on a separate piece of paper and staple it to the actual paper, turn it in. Example: If you scored a 60 on an assignment and you correct ALL of the mistakes, I will add 10 points to make it a 70.

Entry Task/ Brain Bender:

Neon Slick and Art Grant were driving along a deserted country road from the town of Proton to the town of Micron. It wasn't until they came to a multiple fork in the road, that they faced a problem. The signpost had been knocked down and they were faced with choosing one of the 5 different directions. Since they did not have a map and there was no one around to ask, how could Neon and Art find their way to Micron?
