TX History:  They were introduced to the Texas State Seal today.  For homework, they are making their own Seal.  They left class with a large circle drawn on a sheet of computer paper.  It needs to include the following:
Seal of ____ (name)   - written across the top
A small picture of themselves in the center (getting one was homework for last evening)
Their "motto" along the bottom (philosophy, feelings, describes them or reflects interests)
Around the circle:
@ 2 o'clock position: 1-2 things about their family (these could be pictures, drawing, or words)
@ 4 o'clock position: 1 unique thing about the student (what they are good at, what makes them special or different, something they want to share)
@8 o'clock position: 2-3 favorite things
@ 10 o'clock: 2-3 hobbies and interests

Their Seal is to be brought to class on Thursday.  Do not cut them out until tomorrow in class.  They will be mounted on the wall in the classroom.

Science:  The only homework is to return a yellow paper signed by parents.

Math:  They had a worksheet (#1-1) and were to complete 3 questions: 2,3,4 if not completed in class.  Most students were close to finishing before the class ended.
