I will be ordering review books for all sections on Thursday, March 19. Students that would like a book from me should bring $11 to class by that date. These books will be used n class and are required. If you can get any copy of the Prentice Hall Living Environment review book from a friend or older sibling it will be fine, but all students must have a copy of the book available. The review sections are the same, only the Regents tests included is different.
