We start on Brushup Ch. 5.


For this next paper, in order to be thinking in terms of cause and effect, please consider a problem that you are familiar with. This is something that bugs you, that you have tried to fix, or that you would like to try to fix. Goal is to pick a topic with both causes and effects you can explore. You do not have to "solve" the problem.

Homework:

1. Fill a page in your daybook with brainstorming about possible topics for the next paper.

2. Brushup:  Complete to page 62 and Practice 2.
