+# Networking Quicksheet Assessment
+
+Danielle, 
+
+I hear you on topics not covered--there are so many concepts that feel
+essential in all these topic areas, but I also know that trying to cover
+it all is going to mean not having the opportunity to build powerful knowledge
+about any of it. I love your idea for teaching about networks and system design!
+Let me know if you ever want to brainstorm a unit plan.
