Reading
Assignments
As we begin working on new assignments, they will appear in the left panel as a drop-down menu underneath the "Reading" menu.
You will see a list of files below. Don't worry about them until we have to actually use them for an assignment. They may change by the time you are given the assignment, or maybe Mr. C will end not having you work on that assignment this year. This is just a place for him to store assignments and not have to keep uploading therm all of the time.
