CP AMERICAN GOVERNMENT CALENDAR (My apologies to the scrolling impaired.)

Welcome to our class’s tentative calendar. My intent is to update it on a daily basis, though I may be able to do so only episodically. **Caveat: I may fail to make some changes. The best way to stay completely informed is to come to class.** **Directions for use: The top box in each column is class activities for the day; the bottom box is for that night’s homework. Note that I have changed things a bit due to our new block schedule.**
