Daily Warmups
Daily warmups are intended to be quick brain teasers that students complete at their desks before class begins. Honors and College Prep students are required to copy down the warmup every day they are in class; writing down an answer is optional (but correct answers are worth 1 point extra credit each). I realize that sometimes things get hectic, so if you've missed a warmup, now you can find it online (with answers, once everyone's turned in their guesses!).
