The portfolio is where you condense your notes to one page. Color code things and make it neat. Make the portfolio
something that will be useful to you later. Don’t include formulas that are on the formula Sheet. You should include the
interpretations. I would have a section for “How to do this on the Calculator.” There is plain white paper on my desk for
you to use and markers and colored pencils on the side table. Get creative! I’m including the major topics that we have
done so far. This is due on Monday, Oct. 15.
