Hey I have 2 quick questions...

1) Any advice for proofs, I am just starting with them, and wondering how I can make good proofs, i know very little about the now :| anything that other people expierienced while starting proofs would be great, (its grade 12 algebra)

2) Anyone know where i can find additional proof questions? Preferably having nothing to do with calculus, because...i haven't really learned that yet.

Thanks a lot for any suggestions.
