Printing/saving the online exercises

I did the first vocabulary exercise for Ch. 4, at the University of Victoria website. When I clicked on "check" a little box popped up with my score, and a button underneath it that said "OK."

If you have difficulty printing the last screen out, it may be because you have not clicked on "OK" to make the little box go away. Once I did that, my page printed just fine.

You may also want to temporarily undo the "Block pop-up windows" thingie, in case that is preventing the little box from popping up, and thus freezing up your screen in some way.

Alternative to chapter summaries

Starting next week, you will have the option of doing online exercises instead of the weekly chapter summaries. The exercises are found here, at the University of Victoria's website:

http://web.uvic.ca/hrd/latin/wheelock/contents.htm

Select the chapter we are on (or 'unit' as they call it) and do at least four sets of exercises. Print the final screen and hand it in instead of your chapter summary, and you're done!

These exercises are designed to provide extra practice with vocabulary and endings.
