If chapter numbers are not listed the questions are flexible and may be used at different points in the story.

If you wish to assign one chapter for reading, you can alternate giving Constructed response questions on odd number days [as long as the chapters on the Constructed response questions are not listed otherwise], and comprehension quizzes on even numbered days.
