- For PowerPoints I will point out crucial information in red to guide your note taking. Since I will not be relaying information verbally (except when prior notice is given) I have included more guidance and information that usual. Use the bolded and red items to help focus your notes.
- I will often include supplemental activities with your work. These are always optional. These are activities we would generally have done in class and will give you the depth that we will be missing during the closure. I encourage you to do as many of these as you are able while keeping your own mental and emotional health high.
