Notes:

I'm noticing a troubling trend with homework. Last week many students did not finish a reading assignment for class and today I found that only one out of nine students had made recent entries in their writing journals. The homework we do in homeroom is not overly demanding or just busy work. I expect all students to consistently do their homework, and to discuss it with me when they cannot. Needless to say, I'm not happy about this.

So, why aren't we getting our homework done 6s?

Joke:

During a training exercise, an army unit was late for afternoon inspection.
“Where are those camouflage trucks?” the irate colonel barked.
“They’re here somewhere,” replied the sergeant, “but we can’t find’em.”
