Absent?

See me when you return! I will provide you with your make-up work! Do keep in mind that much of what we do is hands on! When you miss class you

may need to have an alternate assignment than what was done in class. If you simply ask one of your peers what they did, you may not get the correct

information! It is your responsibility to see me for this make-up work. Remember that you can be proactive and email me ahead of time if you

already know you will be gone! You do have only one day for each day you are absent to collect that work and get it submitted!
