Welcome First week's lessons 9/4 - 9/7
I will usually be in my room by 7 am. I might be in the office for a few minutes picking up daily paper work, but I will be back. Your questions are important; I want you to understand what we are doing, and to succeed. You can also see me at Break, but the time is limited. I do not check my email everyday, so make sure you talk to me if you have problems. Let the fun begin.
