This assignment WILL BE GRADED, but it is meant to be fun. Really and truly. Note: There are “reflections” for several of the activities. I will NOT be grading them harshly, so whatever parts of the activity you choose to reflect on is fine with me, as long as you are writing ENOUGH paragraph-wise.Lastly, if you have an alternative assignment you would like to do you MUST email me and you MUST get my approval in advance. Keep in mind that emailing me is not an excuse for not having something to turn in. So, if I do not give you that approval, then you must choose from the list below.
