Notes

1. Day 1-7 writings will be done in class but the dates that it says on the calendar will be the days to edit it. Each class will have 5 periods to do the writings (1 each day), but since it is only a 1 page thing, each writing can easily be done in 1 day. The writings will be spread out, but on the days to edit they will all be finished.
