H Chem: 7th period Room Change Reminder

Posted by msjullyyi on September 25, 2006

Hello 7th period.

I wanted to remind you of the room change to Ms. Turner’s room, 766 starting Monday, Sept 25th. I know that it is going to be chaotic so please help me out by getting settled by table number (I think she has the tables all numbered.) To help me and the rest of the you get to class on time, please kindly quietly start on the preamble that will be posted.

So, if you are table 1, then please sit at LAB TABLE #1.
And if you are table 2, then please sit at LAB TABLE #2.
And so on…
Table 9, you will need to make a table by turning the 4 desks toward each other in the front of the room.  (When you leave please kindly put them back.)

As always, I know I’ll be impressed by how quickly and smoothly you get things done .
Ms. Yi

Hello!
Many parents during back to school night asked me if there were things that I needed help with (ex. supplies) and how they could help. At the time, I couldn’t think clearly :) , but as the year goes by, there are supplies that we are constantly in need of.
