Independent Study 12

Today is the second class in our current four-class set. The phrase of the week is, "under wraps." This means to keep something a secret. For example, "Please keep what I told you under wraps."  

Today's reading is about NDA's or non-disclosure agreements. Our listening dialogue is about getting the day started and talking behind your boss's back. The vocabulary words will come from the reading. Please be able to describe them in class.
