Classroom BellringersÂ

Write out the day’s bellringer question from the projector screen into your Bellringer Google Doc. Each question must be legible, properly punctuated, and copied in full.
For each bellringer entry, include the bellringer # and the date.
Prepare your response based on your understanding of the topic. After, we will discuss the daily bellringer, if time permits.
Please ensure that the bellringer response is written by you (no plagiarism or use of ChatGPT).
On Turnitin, student's similarity score for Bellringers is to be 10% or less & A.I. should be 0%.

You will have a bellringer entry for everyday we are in the class.
