Reminder:  All assignments must be handed in on time to get credit.  All assignments must be typed.  You can single space assignments, and none are expected to take you more than 30 minutes to do or one page to write (unless otherwise indicated).  My suggestion is to read the assignment and then read the chapters so that the assignment will guide your reading.
