Welcome back from Easter break. I hope that everyone was safe, and used their time wisely during the break. As you know we are going to have our poster presentations on Wednesday. This should be a great showcase for all of your hard work. Here is the outline of the notes for the week. As a reminder these notes are the skeletal version of what you would actually see in the classroom.

Tuesday: Propaganda poster: This is your last day to finish it. The presentation of the posters will be on Wednesday. I will not be questing you tomorrow due to the fact that we have people away. Expect a quest on Friday.
