Next, read through the syllabus and leaf collection assignment (files are attached below).  Send me a Remind message if you have any questions once you have read these documents or if you have any difficulty accessing them and I will try to reach a solution.

September 2:  Read through the PowerPoint presentation on unit one, use the guide notes sheet provided to fill in the notes as you progress just like you would if you were taking notes in class.  Take a picture and send it to me via Remind when you're finished, and I will give you a participation grade for completing the notes.
