Reading: A single number in the reading column means to read that entire chapter. When a reading is indicated as going to a particular page number, it means up to the first heading on that page. The same section number on the next class day then indicates to finish the section.
Review: These are minimal recommended problems to prepare for the next day's quiz on the reading. Be sure you can do them. In addition, we recommend you read through all of the review problems and think about how you would do them. Note that R1.[5,9,15] means R1.5, R1.9, R1.15.
Labs: These are the labs that you will work on that day. Unless otherwise specified, you should finish the lab the same day you start.
