Great lesson. All major points covered. Joe's responses indicated a good understanding, particularly of the overall trends.
I asked Joey to choose ten questions out of the sixteen that he had prepared to answer for the test. He wrote steadily. He will finish the last two questions tomorrow and review his answers.
