Decision: Humors class

The humors class will be in the active learning style and taught in persona.
Why? Because, bloody hell, it's too complicated beyond the basics and I don't have enough of it mastered to be able to do something complicated. Besides, I have trouble going beyond simple repetitive declarative sentences. "This is a ball. The Ball is red. Yes, bounce the ball. Good bouncing the ball! Do you like the Red ball?" these days.

There will be handouts which is unperiod but well, deal. They will be handed out as they are needed so we can all be active learners. :)
