Greetings RUSH'ers:
Here are your assignments for the week of October 1, 2012. Please note that unless specified otherwise, all HW assignments are due by the next class session. Missed assignments can only be made up if a student does it during their lunch period, or after school on Wednesdays. All assignments must be accompanied by a parent's signature or credit will not be given for the assignment.
This week, we'll begin taking a look at the causes of America's Revolutionary War. We will be completing lectures, and some reading at home, and doing more work in class. Essentially, we're "flipping" our classroom, so the classes will become more student-centered. Therefore, it's critical that you are doing your homework every night!
