You know what is so great about the 3rd nine weeks?  Yes, I told you I would challenge you more....But, many of the topics we will cover in the weeks to come, you have now been exposed to from our 2nd 9 weeks curriculum.   We will review and enhance your knowledge of these topics, via Canada and Latin America!
