Instructions for all Quizzes:

Each quiz will consist of 15 "items." Each item is worth two points, making each quiz worth 30 points. An "item" could be the name of a character or a situation. For each, you must explain a little bit more about the situation. Or you must describe something the character does in the story we are reading.

It is not enough just to explain that Achilles is a great warrior. And it isn't enough to tell me something you saw Achilles do in the recent movie -- or something you read about in the Cliff's Notes. You must tell me something the character does in the story we are reading. You must provide enough detail to convince me that you have actually read the assigned text.
