| Note | I am horribly behind. I thought an adjunct would be teaching this course, but it looks like I have to. I don't have a textbook, but will have one by Monday afternoon. This means you have a fairly easy week. Please read over all materials below, take the quiz, write your two topics (I promise to never again assign two topics in one week) and start brainstorming for your Montessori School project. If you need anything please email me or give me a call. My number is in the syllabus. | ---- |
