Please login - and complete 10 mapping entries.
username and password should be the same as teenbiz3000's

Please email me, if you have trouble logging in.

This is the latest power point that I have from each group. I still have to go through each slide to review and provide feedback on the second check point. These comments are to help you improve your proposals so please make sure to read them and take action.

I will print out a hard copy with new feedback notes again for those groups that met their second deadline, and you'll be able to make revisions from them. If you still need to turn in your second check point please do so. It is not too late.

I have also posted the worksheet for the Discussion/Conclusion. This will assist you in composing your individual conclusion slides and the group discussion/conclusion slides. Please do as much of this worksheet as you can for homework, class time is very limited.

The entire presentation is due on Thursday 12/8 @ 3:30p.m.

If you need a place to work on your project my room will be open from 7:45 to 8:25a.m. and after school from 2:35 to 3:30p.m. Tuesday and Thursday.

Thank you,
Mrs. Lee
