Pahom’s dream in Part VII also seems to recapitulate the three real estate ventures.

In Tolstoy’s story “How Much Land Does a Man Need?” Pahom has real estate dealings involving three tracts of land: the initial tract close to his village; a second tract “beyond the Volga”; and a third tract owned by the Bashkirs. Pahom’s dream in Part VII also seems to recapitulate the three real estate ventures. Examine these three accounts and the dream; argue that his encounter with the Bashkirs for the third tract of land is a recapitulation and a mirroring of the previous two encounters and the dream. What is the thematic function of essentially repeating the same story? State the theme in twenty-five words or less.

List factors discussed in this chapter 4 and in Chapter 3 that increase the chances than an infant will be born underweight.

The following assignment is designed to allow the student to connect, reflect, review and apply information from Chapter 3 & 4. This assignment has 7 questions that should be answered using synthesis, analysis and understanding of textbook readings and concepts.

This assignment directly correlates with the following Student Learning Outcomes:

  • Recognize and demonstrate respect for major cultural and sociological differences in child rearing and views of the child as a functioning individual within the environment.
  • Understand the interaction between biological and environmental factors that directly influence, or place the child at risk for, developmental delay or disability.
  • Know the potential impacts of general and specific disabilities, delays or risk factors including biomedical factors specific to infants and toddlers (e.g., prematurely, prenatal exposure to drugs) on the different domains of development.
