Two variations of this lesson!

The first is a PowerPoint for those teachers who know the material and want to guide their students through the material. This class takes approximately 60-minutes. There is one link to Youtube in the presentation. The video is 2 minutes. Youtube links are checked weekly and updated when necessary.
