On Thursday, we delved into parliamentary procedure. We learned the basic process of running a meeting, how to make a motion, and matched up vocabulary. This Thursday we will have our simulation! You all have a part that requires preparation outside of class. So please come prepared. If you do, you will be rewarded with POM-POMS! The more pom-poms you get the more P items you can purchase!
Thanks, everyone!! If you have questions please email me!
Below are your assignments.
Good luck! I'll see you Thursday.
