Homework: Odyssey for 30 minutes for all classes.

Also, Pre-Algebra students, I noticed on your Data Analysis test, some of you are having difficulties with long division and writing your answer as a decimal. On Odyssey I added an icon for dividing decimals, please practice if you know that you are having difficulities with this. Thank you! The overall average for the whole class on the test is a "B". Good Job!
