How is it going? Ø If you are using this Power. Point to study, let me know. Print out just the first title slide and write, “Thanks Andi and Katelyn for the great work” and let me know helpful this was, scale 1 -4 (little to lots). You must present this to me at the beginning of the period on Monday for your treat. Mr. Davis
