Lessons 1-11 can be found in the attached pdf file. They are scanned images from which you will have to take notes and complete the activities in your notebook. In class we will review any issues that arise from your completion of the activities. Once all activities are complete, you will work on a Using What You Learned Activity and a Review Activity.
