Looking at the evaluation categories we chose; "fun," "to be," and "to have" come up with a description for this category that would tell someone unfamiliar with it what sort of behaviors it evaluates. Also, see if we can come up with official, user-friendly category titles ("to be" and "to have" are ok working titles, but will be difficult for outside people to understand).
Homework:
If you did not finish your category description for the activity categories, do so for homework.
Read for two hours from your free choice book (use the page count we established on 09/19).
