"Primeval Night" Quizzes

First the bad news ... many people did very poorly on this quiz, and we will discuss it in class Monday when I hand them back.  The good news is that you may redeem your grade by turning in this "Correction Assignment" attached to your old test Scantron.  (You MUST attach Scantron with the new materials so I can verify which answers you missed, what your old grade was, etc.)
The "Correction Assignment" -- Basically, this requires you to review the text and find the correct answers, and cite the information/quotes that verify the correct answers.
1.)  Write the number of the question you missed.
2.)  Find the correct multiple choice letter by reading the text, and note the correct letter.  (A, B, C, etc.)
3.)  Cite the page(s) and quotes from the text to support the correct answers.

Example (made up):

4. (question missed)  A.  (correct letter answer)   Page 13, "The monolith disappeared quietly in the night, as mysteriously as it appeared." (page and quote that supports correct answer)

Make sense?  I'll explain it in class.
CORRECTIONS DUE:  Wednesday, February 8th -- NO LATER!
This is a REQUIRED assignment/regrade if you received an 80% or below.  If you received an 85% or higher, you MAY do this, but it is up to you.  Remember, this was your first quiz/test grade of the new semester.  You want a high grade to start the semester off right, so make sure you do this assignment!  It is the ONLY time I will allow you a "regrade" on a test.
