It is wise to print out the calendar and keep it handy where you do your work. This way you know when every assignment is DUE and when every assignment will become late and start having a ten percent penalty per late week. When an assignment is over 7 weeks late, I do not have to accept it, and it will earn 0 points.

Quizzes: To prepare for the Quizzes, study each lesson's "Study Questions".

Some of the material in these courses is based on Head Start material. We would like to thank Head Start for their cooperation and input in the development of this course.
