    Sir, even if I have not yet recieved this lesson may I still do the homework? or will I have to wait for this lesson to do the homework? I am from 8A so we haven’t had this lesson yet.

    Lasmyr, if you think you understand enough to do the assignment, then go ahead and do it early if you’d like. However, if you do it wrong I’ll ask you to do it again. Show me what you’ve got tomorrow.
