• When you first arrive in class:
– If you have any questions about the homework
please put the question #’s on the board
• If someone has already put your question # up, and
you’d like to see an explanation, please put a check
mark next to the problem
• The idea being that problems that lots of people are
finding difficult will be clearly marked
• We’ll start with ≤ 10 minutes of Q+A
