5.The next 5 week grading period ends on Oct. 14th, 2011 (Oh snap, that’s this Friday!). One way to bring up sucky grades is to do or finish incomplete assignments (write in this space: 1 of the “Nations” Group-Project, and all 4 the “Computer Skills” assignments.

10.When is the next quiz (remember, only cooool people like to know this kind of stuff. Are you cool?)? What can you use to help you on the quiz? *Hint: the answer is laptops and your google account! That’ll be like, so cool and stuff! The next test is on friday yea I am cool notes .
