Change in plans! Due dates below.

I can't do it all.
Originally, I planned to roll from the magazine ad into a video commercial for their products.  I must confess that the focus of the students is waning.  It is like pulling teeth to get these magazine ads done.  So, by the end of this week, we will be finished advertising and move on to something else. 


(We made some video commercials earlier anyway.)

Due dates by section:

Section 3: Magazine ad due Thursday, Quiz 12 Friday
Section 4: Magazine ad due Wednesday, Quiz 12 Friday
Section 5:  Magazine ad due Wednesday, Quiz 12 Thursday
Section 6: Magazine ad due Friday, Quiz 12 Friday
Section HB: Magazine ad due Thursday, Quiz 12 Thursday
