Economics Vocabulary
http://www.thomas.k12.ga.us/olc/class.aspx?id=2268&s=530
I was able to load today's powerpoint as a pdf file to my school website. If your student needs these terms, or you would like to make sure they have all they should, please find it here. A vocabulary quiz will be given Monday to review these terms.
STUDENTS - Tonight's homework - Study the words you were given so far in class. Decide what type of business you would start if you could.
PARENTS - Your student may not have all of the terms from the power point today. We had Grandparents Day which made some of our classes longer and some classes much shorter.

September 11, 2012
In class we will discuss September 11, 2001. In my mind this event just happened so I have to remind myself that this group of students were just babies. Please discuss with them where you were when you heard the news, how it changed your world views, etc.
I will not show any graphic images.
