ACT Extra Credit

While I am not a proponent of testing [in general], I am an advocate of doing well on the ACT because it can help you get into the college you want, help you get scholarships, and it allows colleges to find you based on your scores and interest inventory.  For that reason, I am choosing to offer extra credit for those who take the ACT and do well.
  • "20 Point Club":  50 Extra Credit Points
  • "30 Point Club":  100 Extra Credit Points
  • "32 Point Club":  Grade Bump (up one grade)
ACT Score must be shown to me by the last day of school.

Journal: How Would You Spend a Million Dollars?

Journal Write:  How would you spend $1,000,000?

Imagine that you suddenly won a million dollars.  What would you do?  How would you spend it?  Be specific.
Question: If you had $1,000,000 and had to spend it all in one year, how much [if divided equally] would you have to spend every single hour?
