Announcements and Reminders for Friday, January 11, 2019:                           Welcome to class!  Please pick up your folder, and find your assigned seat.  As you come in, pick up a notecard on the front desk. At the top of the notecard, write your name. Under your name, answer the following questions:  1. What does BICUM stand for? (You may use your brochure.)  2. What do the letters in CRAAP stand for? Your disclosure documents are due today, but you may still bring them later. Turn them in now if you have them.

Targets for Today: I can remember what CRAAP stands for in our class! I can read quietly. I know why my teachers don't want me to use Wikipedia for research, but my think it's okay to use it for some other things. I understand better how to use the CRAAP Test.
