We'll then spend 1-2 classes discussing info from unit 3 and wrap things up with the Quiz after that.  For this week: Focus on getting your "Deep Dives" finished and as many cards done as you can before break if you want to take the holidays off ;-) or use it as time to get ahead so you don't have to feel as rushed when we get back.
