We are only a few weeks into the second quarter, at this time it would be a good idea get yourself organized.  Remove items form the first quarter, put them in a place you will be able to find them, as you will need them for mid-term review.  Also make sure you have a separate notebook for every subject. Organiztion is one of the keys to success!

During this month of thanksgiving, it is a nice time to reflect on all the blessing we have been given and share our good fortune with others.
