While you are doing this today, I will be going over your grades so that you know what you acheived in class for a grade.

Be ready to present tomorrow. We will be using the presentation rubric int he handout folder.

Open the rubric and a new document. In the new document you should write the name of the group, what they are presenting on, a brief summary of what they said, and then score them using the rubric.
