Good morning,

Briana and I were robbed today.  If we were playing against opponents who were a little shorter, we would have mopped the floor with them... in a nice way, of course.   

As an aside, please remember that respect is important. Even if you're having a bad day or feeling really angry about something, do not use that as an excuse to be disrespectful.  You do not have to be happy all the time, but you do have to be respectful. 

Your homework for tonight:

Option one:

1. What does adequate mean?

2. What is the poverty line?

Option two:
In a well-developed paragraph, answer the following question. According to what you have learned and what you already know, why do you think that poverty exists in America? ( I know this is a question that was already posted - but it was not answered yet)

PARENTS/ GUARDIANS: If you have any questions or comments please feel free to comment on the bottom of this page. I will reply as soon as possible. I look forward to your comments.  

See you tomorrow,

Ms. Betsy
