 * 3rd Six Weeks**
 * Be sure to __print__ out all assignments and __turn them in to me__ upon returning to class. You may also email me assignments at __chyde@lcmcisd.org__** **or __bhyde@lcmcisd.org__. Don't forget to check the __Vocabulary page__ and the __Warm Ups page__ for make up work as well.** If you missed one day, your make-up work will be due one day after you get back. If you missed 2 days, then 2 days after you get back. Warning: If you did not turn a __legitimate__ excuse in to the office, this means you were truant (an unexcused absence). You may not make up work for truancy.
