If a student scores an 80 or above on the multiple choice section for the Ch. 2 Test they may exempt the Reading Guide and Notes assignment. However students are still required to read Ch. 3 in their online books. If any student needs any extra help I will be available every morning, and during Chatt Time in my room.
