Mistakes are only mistakes if we don't learn from them. If you miss any questions on this quiz, you MUST do corrections before the start of class tomorrow. That means: a 3-4 sentence paragraph on the subject of the correct answer for each question missed. This should be written somewhere on the original quiz paper. You may use the internet, your textbook, your notes, etc, to help you compose this paragraph, but be sure not plagiarize. If you do not turn these corrections in, you will receive a zero for the whole quiz! OPEN NOTE QUIZ TOMORROW!!!
