Basic Economics Crossword: GLEs 42-45

About the Economics Unit

The GLE presentations for the Economics Unit are relatively brief, so I schedule more per day than I do with the Civics Unit. If you miss class it is imperative that you download and read the outline of the material you missed. If you need help I tutor on Friday mornings by appointment.

The Rest of this Week

Wednesday
Complete the Civics Unit (through GLE #41) in those classes that have not finished the Civics Unit. Classes that have completed the Civics Unit will review the Civics Unit.

Thursday
Binder Check on the Civics Unit -- Be prepared to turn the worksheets on GLEs 31, 32, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, & 41 in for a classwork grade.
We start the Economics Unit with GLE #42.
GLE #42
GLE #43
GLE #44

Friday
GLE #45
GLE #46
GLE #47

I will test you on GLEs 37, 38, 39, 40, & 41 on Tuesday of next week.

Please see tonight's previous post about downloading the outlines for the Economics Unit from my iDisk.

Downloading Files from my iDisk

I am having technical problems uploading files to my main website so I am uploading the economics GLE outlines and presentations to my iDisk. The link is:

If you use the iDisk please send an email and let me know if it works. If you have trouble please include the name of your operating system (Windows XP, for example) in the email.

Binder Check Delayed Until Thursday

I want to discuss the binder check with you beforehand; so I am delaying it until Thursday.
