YOU HAVE BEEN WORKING HARD AND I AM VERY PROUD OF EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU. REMEMBER THAT HARD WORK PAYS OFF!
THIS WEEK WE WILL BE WORKING AND CONVERTING FRACTIONS, DECIMALS, AND PERCENTS INTO EQUIVALENT FORMS. YOU ALREADY KNOW THE FRACTIONS AND DECIMALS PORTION BUT WILL BEGIN WORKING WITH PERCENTS IN DETAIL. REMEMBER TO STAY ALERT IN CLASS SO THAT YOU DON'T STAY BEHIND.
I AM ALSO VERY PROUD OF EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN WORKING VERY HARD AT THEIR, "MY CLASSROOM ECONOMY" JOBS. YOU HAD YOUR FIRST PAYDAY ON FRIDAY AND I HOPE YOU KNOW HOW TO USE YOUR MONEY WISELY BECAUSE RENT IS DUE PRETTY SOON.

BEING AN ADULT IS TOUGH LIKE SOME OF YOU SAID BUT I PROMISE YOU YOU WILL BE FINE! :) JUST CONTINUE TO WORK HARD!
