|
| |
| This page should
help you get up to speed on information covered at the start of
the school year. As you can see, class information is
posted on the web and is accessible 24/7 from any PC in the
world. You will need the following to access and print
worksheets. |
| |
Adobe reader 5.0 or newer
- Most newer computers come with a version of this
program. To test and see if the computer you are now
using has it click on this link to open the
adobe test page. If it does not open,
don't worry, you can get the newest version of adobe reader
7.0, free, by clicking the logo box and following the
directions.
 |
|
|
Loan Disk available: If
you have a slow Internet connection, I can loan you a
disk with Adobe versions 5,6 and 7 which is the latest.. It will
save time and avoids problems. To borrow the
disk there will be a small $2 refundable deposit to
help guarantee its return. |

You say
you don't have a computer or Internet access.
The Downey High school library does as well as most
classrooms on campus and all you need is a free Internet
account to get on-line. If you need a password, see
Mr. Mendenhall in room M-2 at snack, lunch or after school.

Homework |
|
|
|
- Assignments are listed on the "Assignments"
page with the newest at the top. Worksheets can also be printed
out from that page. New assignments are usually updated Sunday
evening and Wednesday evening. You should get in the habit of
checking at least twice each week for new homework, test dates and other
useful information. To avoid problems, also take a look at the "Homework
Standards"
|
|
|
Code of
Conduct |

|
|
- You should take a look at the
"Code
of Conduct" because that
information was covered
in the first 2 weeks of school and you are responsible for
it.
|
|
|

grade and see if any assignments are missing by clicking on
"Grades".
