Below is a list of work. This work is expected to be completed before Spring Break and turned in to Mr. Smith no later than Friday, May 14^th. As you complete the items on this list, put it in your folder and have either Mr. Smith or Mrs. Purdom initial the box next to it. Once you have initials inside each box on the list, you may turn in the entire folder to the Inbox. For items that cannot be placed into the folder (items with the “*” symbol), the initial in the box is all that is needed. IF WORK IS NOT SHOWN ON MATH WORK, IT WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED!
