Please answer all questions as complete sentences where appropriate. Check you answers before submitting them via email. Incorrect answers or answers that are not answered fully will need to be redone, so get it right the first time. If you are stuck on any questions, reread the correct section of the book, use the search feature in iBooks and search for the key words from the question, ask one of your Pegasus reading mates or come and see me!

You will work with me during the week on these questions as well as discussion questions. The discussion question will change weekly and you will need to come prepared to discuss this during our meetings. You will be given time in class to read the assigned chapters but it is expected that you will spend some of your 20 minutes a night homework reading time as well. Please use your time appropriately.
