1. I will continue my reading regiment of 20-40 pages, but increase the frequency now by reading nightly. This should allow me more than adequate time to complete the novel by Feb. 4th as I am already over one third complete.

2. Courtesy of (primarily) past AP lit students, of our school and other's with respective blogs.

•   Is Pip happy that he is given the opportunity to kiss the beautiful Estelle? Why or why not? (http://jpdrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2012/02/great-expectations-study-questions.html)

•  How does Estelle behave towards Pip? What is her disposition, character motive towards the main protagonist? (http://jpdrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2012/02/great-expectations-study-questions.html)

•  What does it mean that Pip has been raised "by hand"? (http://hswrhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/2012/02/great-expectations-questions-and.html)

•  How does Estella criticize Pip, and what does his reaction to her criticism reveal about Pip?

3.  I would, of course, rather avoid traditional testing as we are in a non-traditional, asymmetrical, class (in term of our more..."progressive" education style) as is but a tag along questionnaire to say one of our weekly vocab quizzes one day would be acceptable in my eyes (though proper warning for ample study time should always be exercised :).
