Once you complete the vocab quiz you may continue to work on FA3. It is due today, so you will need to email it to me before you leave class today if you want to earn full credit.
After completing both of these I have an Internet search activity for you. You will need to use your browser of choice and your favorite search engine to complete these questions.
