2. Review this material. If you are at the library, go to the SCC lab and practice making the temple base and using Duplicate Special options to create the 2nd part of the temple base. If you cannot get to campus, read over the material carefully. Review what we have covered and read ahead to preview what we will cover on Thursday and Friday. Take notes!
