*Reviewing Notes -I have explained to all students that each day they should be reviewing their 
                                      notes.  I have also explained how to review their notes.  This is something 
                                      that will help them make their notes more detailed and help them grasp 
                                      the important concepts without getting overwhelmed with too much
                                      information.  I have talked about annotating the notes, a little each day
                                      to help stay organized and keep the material fresh in their minds. 
                                      Please feel free to contact me for strategies on note taking, as I will 
                                      always try and help them to stay ahead and answer any questions they
                                      might have.

                                       Thanks,
           
                                        Michael Heath
