LT Remediation:
Using the materials returned to you (along with your current Jumprope report), please use the remainder of class to attend to any business required. Those who are up-to-date can participate in the extension meet-and-greet.


OR Colonial Meet-and-Greet:
Using the character card, read and determine how your character would LIKELY behave. Be sure not to give away all the details of who you are, where you are from, and what your BUSINESS is, but politely introduce yourself to each other. Your goal is to find out as much as you can about each other and to correctly identify who is whom. You'll get a "guess" sheet to record your answers. We will hold a "reveal" at the end of the class.
