Only a few students did not finish their autobiographies today. So I gave the option to come to my room at lunch and finish them up OR they had to take the work home and finish it at home. I will be picking up these assignments at the beginning of class tomorrow. If you missed today, you will have to come to my room tomorrow at lunch to get your autobiogrphy finished up.
