Cauliflower & Broccoli

Cauliflower versus broccoli

This is semester two, 203 class. Last semester, this class did very well for grades. If you came to class every time, I am sure you got a high grade. Let’s look at the grading system again. It is a little different this semester:

Attendance (20%): come to class. Every hour you do NOT come to class, I deduct (minus 1%). If you miss a class, that is minus 2%. 18%.

Participation (10%): be happy in class and write full sentences, etc. Talk with feeling. Monotone is no good.

30% just to come to class

Ideal: perfect; the best

Diet: the food we eat

Dairy product: from a cow, like milk, butter, cheese plus eggs

1.          I went on a diet. (This means to lose weight.)

Poultry: meat from a bird, like chicken, turkey or duck

Cantaloupe: orange melon

Bell pepper
