We have finished our first test.  The students got a chance to correct their tests for extra points.  Now they know the type of tests I give.  Chapter 2 test coming up.  Also do not forget the country report is due Sept 30.  They have a current event due next Wed/Thur.   Any article on what is happening in todays economy.
Also, please remember to put your class paper on stuff you turn in.  It makes it easier to record.
After chapter 2 test, we move to chapter 15, international trade, good/bad??????????????  Most politicians seem to be in agreement with David Ricardo, trade is good.  What seems to be the barriers to trade, today?

Hello econ parents and students.  The students have gone over the class syllabus and all know what is expected of them.  They all have their semester projects and due dates in their notes.  No excuses, parents check with your student for that syllabus and their notes on the due dates.
This Friday, next Tuesday and Wed. we will be in the library starting our stock market project and their country report research.  Part 1 of their stock market project is due next Wed.  Their country report is due Sept. 30.
Back in the classroom we will start with why study economics.  Ask your students about minimum wage laws and typical consumer spending and saving.
When they get their books you should see them at home ALL of the TIME.  They also have a room-set of books here.  We start out with chapters 1,2 and 15.
Good luck this year!
