...Sorry that I can't make it. I'm very sick this week, but I'm going to do my best to get in tomorrow to join you all. I know it's a tremendous downer doing work on the first day, but I assure you this is an opportunity to avoid homework later on!
I'm asking you to read one section of a chapter from our textbook, which you can find on the bookshelf in the back of the room. You will have an open-note quiz on this tomorrow. I'll ask you 14 questions about the reading, and you'll do the best to answer. Since it's open note... you'd be well-advised to write some stuff down!
Right here is the link to the assignment. It's also on the right bar, under "Reading Guides - 5.1 Renaissance" -->
The above link has a list of questions. Anything I ask on the quiz will be related to these questions. If you read carefully, take notes that sufficiently answer these questions, you should easily score a 100% on the quiz. The advantage of this system over a worksheet is that as long as *you* understand your notes and remember the content, you're set. Terrible handwriters of the world, rejoice!
Thanks in advance for your patience and hard work.
