1. Examining English, French & British Government Perspectives in 1837

I recommend not leaving this work to the last minute, but rather do a little bit at a time over the course of the week. (Due Monday)
Math - Please complete 2 more rounds of your fitness tracking exercises. It doesn't matter which days you do, but you should have 2 more rounds recorded by Friday. We need to have these for activities in class. (Due Friday)

Below are some links to texts which promote mindsets that we are seeking to develop in our class this year in order to enhance our learning experiences. Each text is a teacher writing to their student in an effort to provide encouragement. I hope you enjoy them. Please let me know what you think :)

3. To accomplish, you must first become
4. School improves your passions
5. The way school improves your passions
6. Are you committed to your success? Prove it, and you'll be glad you did!
7. Why growth is fun!
