Class today: March 30th

1. You will be finishing your work on the individual pilgrims today.  Make sure you have addressed each pilgrim in the GP.
2. When you are done, you will need to open the "Placement of Pilgrims" document that I have shared with you... MAKE A COPY OF THIS DOCUMENT. This can be done under "file". This will ensure that you do not write on this original that I have shared with everyone.
3. Once you have completed this, you will need to place your document, with your name as part of the title, in the folder I have also shared with you.

Cool?
