Why are we doing this?

https://programming.codeyourfuture.io/how-this-works/sprints/self-educate/prep/#importance-of-prep

The first thing you should do every week is the prep. The prep will help you do everything else. The prep teaches you the main concepts of the week and then the coursework provides projects and exercises to help you consolidate and practice that learning.

If you have gone straight to the coursework or straight to class and you haven't done the prep first, then go back and do the prep.
