Skit and Book Preparation

On Tuesday 29th, Apr. and Wednesday 30th, Apr. we worked on our books and skits for the Industrial Revolution. Every person choose a group of up to four people and then began work on the project. If you were absent today and already have a group, you will resume working in your group next time.

If you were absent and did not already have a group, you have TWO OPTIONS. You need to see me so we can integrate you into a group next time. Or if you did not have a group you may work on this project alone.

This is the assignment sheet again if you need it.
