I'm going to put TWO posts about Easter homework on the blog. These homework tasks are for those students who missed the last class - Joana, Leonor S, and Carolina! This is the first post. I will put up the second post later, probably next week.

Next, do this exercise:
Go to the web pages below, and answer the questions on a piece of paper. You should give your answers to me in the first class after Easter. 1)
