Below you will find Reading Packet #1 and Reading Packet #2.
I highly suggest that you print out each packet and bring them to class on the day they are due to be read. However, you CAN read them online and simply attend class with your laptop or tablet. In any case, you must attend class prepared to discuss and/or write about what you read in the Packet.
Also, please note that even though I refer to the assignments as "reading" packets, there are often videos to view along with reading materials.
