Extra Credit Opportunity Results
I am sad to say that my experiment wasn't a successful one, out of a total of about 105 six grade students only 1 student turned in the Extra Credit Opportunity showing that you the students need to be more responsible and take advantage of my Blog Postings.
Keep checking my blog as other extra credit opportunities might arise!
