HW- I will be out of class Thursday. I will be asking you to do textbook problems. There are some books in the classroom but not enough for everyone to have their own. Of course you can share them in the classroom but if you want to have your own, bring your textbook from home.

May 2- Ms. Lewis out 

While I am out of class complete the following. It would be best to work with a partner to go through the activities. Circuits is really a puzzle, once you know the rules you can do any problem I give you! Help each other out!

When finished upload your work here. This should be finished by the end of class!

HW- make sure to complete 1-4 above. When I get back to class Monday, my expectation is that you have completed this and are ready to move onto combination circuits. If you are absent Thursday you still need to look at what is covered today to make sure you are ready for Monday.
