It’s January 22. 
Today is “Celebration of Life Day.”  What are three unique ways you could celebrate life today?

Trivial Fact of the Day:   An apple is 25% air.  That’s why they float on water.  Have you ever bobbed for apples?
Interesting Quote of the Day:  “A child’s life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark.”  --Robert Heinlein (American writer)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  nondescript (adjective) – use this word to describe something or someone that has no specific characteristics to distinguish it from something or someone else.   Finish this sentence: The lemur was nondescript except for its _____________________.

Totally Terrific Thursday!!!
Today, we are going to start with a journal about electric cars that drive themselves. It's true too!! Commas, do you know how to use them? By the end of this unit you will be a comma expert.
We are going to review the semester exam next week. Remember that the exam was only 1/16 of your grade. It would not make or break your average. It was a difficult exam, but after we review it, you will have a lot of "Duh!" moments. So take off the worry hats.
