WELCOME!!!


You have entered the danger zone. Warning! Warning! Warning! (sirens blaring in the background....woop! woop! woop!) You have just arrived at your new blog site. This is the place where I will post your homework assignments, news events, notices of upcoming tests, and worksheets for you to print out at home. It is also a place where you can communicate with your fellow geometricians as you make that slow, treacherous journey through my Algebra 2 Honors class. Use this blog as a means of communicating with your fellow classmates. For instance, if you don't know how to do problem number 11 tonight, then you can post it. Hopefully, someone will read your posting and respond with a hint or an explanation of how to arrive at the answer. Use this blog to your benefit. Also, there are helpful "Educational Links" on the left hand side of the website. Click on each of them to see what they look like. Every now and then, I will offer extra credit for logging in to some of these sites. Until then, happy blogging!!!!
