Last Wednesday, a new story was assigned. If you have not completed the story, it is due by the end of the day today. See Classroom for instructions.
Technology Clarification
Because there is only one 6th grade eLearning website, I post the technology assignments on Mondays, but then make them due later. So you can still do them on Tuesdays. I'll change deadlines to Thursdays instead of Wednesdays. This week, if you have not started or you are not done with the rectangle pan calculations, please finish before Monday (or Tuesday). Monday's assignment continues and is short. If you aren't clear if you are done, check Educate.tads and Google classroom for current grades. (If you missed a point or two you can fix that too!) Thanks for letting me know the mix-up! Normally I won't be posting technology assignments on Fridays.
