U.S. History= Chapter 4 & 5 Quest (longer than a quiz, but shorter than a test) in class on Monday, 11/21 & Tuesday, 11/22...and no homework over the break! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope that as we have the time off from school you take a little time to count all your blessings (big & small...and not just the fact that you don't have school)!
