NOTICE:
Homework is posted 2 to 3
weeks before it is due so there is absolutely no reason
for you to make excuses why more time is needed.
Remember, things happen, printers quit working,
computers crash and electric power goes off so maybe you
should not wait until the night before the assignment is
due to get started. One more thing to keep in
mind, most of you have not made use of the 500
copies the school has given you on the library's laser
printer and maybe you should. If computers and you
don't get along then see me and I will give you a
workbook. |

I know you will not want to do
it this way, but read it through once before answering
the questions. History is about telling a story
and it makes more sense if you read it all first
rather than just looking for answers. Neatness does count,
use ink and be

paper or you will lose 2 points.
