Agenda

At the beginning of the school year, we buy an agenda. It is a spiral-bound book that includes each week of school with blanks to fill in for homework.

This year, Christopher has decided not to fill in the blanks in his agenda. His reason -- he'll remember his assignments.

Yet, this week, we've had a few forgotten assignments. He remembers either at 8:30 p.m. or at 7:15 a.m. This morning was quite a mess. As I was going through his backpack, out came a sheet of paper with eight math word problems. There were no answers . .he had not done the work. So, he hurriedly tried to finish before he and Gervais left at 7:30 a.m. Then, he went to tutoring. Math paper was turned in incomplete.

The agenda blank for math . . . was blank.
