You may use a 3x5 card (both sides), but you must complete the card yourself and you may NOT use a magnifying glass to read it. At this time, I am planning around 150 questions covering the major works we have studied this semester, vocabulary, literary terms, and poetry analysis of one or two new poems I will give you. The poetry section will test skill as well as content and will be similar to standardized testing. </SPAN></H2> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">How to study:</SPAN></P> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Read over your class notes on discussions on the works.</SPAN></P> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Memorize the vocabulary.</SPAN></P> <P style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Review any links on my website pertinent to the major works we studied this semester.</SPAN></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><STRONG><SPAN style="LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 14pt">Go over the questions you missed on old tests. This will not only serve as a review of the content, but will help you learn about your learning styles.Since I will utilize old tests and use the similar questions or even the same questions, it is imperative you understand the material missed and the type of questions that "stump" you. Education is not only about acquiring knowledge, but about learning how to learn and understanding your unique learning patterns and styles. I am available for private tutoring and sessions after school and during periods 3, 6, and 9 for those of you who wish to discuss how to study, what to study, etc.</SPAN></STRONG></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"> Part One:<EM>Twelfth Night</EM></P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">I plan on approximately 50 questions-15 identifying areas on the Globe Theater (word bank), 12 or so general questions about Shakespeare and the theater of the 16th and 17<SUP>th</SUP>century, and 25 or so on the play itself. There will be a quote section taken from old quizzes as well as general matching questions about characters, theme and plot.</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">Sample Questions:</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">In Shakespeare’s time, the roles of women were performed by:</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>a.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>Only rich ladies</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>b.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>Young men</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>c.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>Old men</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in"><SPAN>d.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>The wives of the actors</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">William Shakespeare was born in:</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>a.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>1982</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>b.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>1867</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><SPAN>c.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>1616</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in"><SPAN>d.<SPAN>     </SPAN></SPAN>1564</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">Part Two:<EM>Hunger Games</EM></P> <P style="MARGIN: 12pt 0in 10pt">I plan on about 50 questions- 30 or so vocabulary (word banks and/or matching) and 20 or so basic questions about plot, theme, and characters.

We have studied literary and poetic terms. I will give you a couple new poems and/or a passage from<EM>Twelfth Night</EM>and ask questions about it. In this section, you will need to use all the skills you have garnered this year. You will need to know the basic definitions of literary terms such as alliteration, metaphor, free verse, iambic pentameter, simile, parallelism, etc. and be able to identify them in the passages. This section is extremely helpful to you as you prepare to take the ACT and SAT as well as AP tests.</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt">Sample Question if you were given the poem “A Noiseless, Patient Spider” by Walt Whitman:</P> <P> “A Noiseless Patient Spider” by Walt Whitman uses what rhyme scheme?</P> <P>a. abccb</P> <P>b. abcda</P> <P>c. none-it is free verse<STRONG></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG> </STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Note about the exam period: You may not leave the room unless it is a dire emergency.

Please place each in the respective piles. Place any books you are returning to the front desk as well.</STRONG></P> <P><STRONG>Have a great summer and God bless!</STRONG></P> Automatically clean input to optimize for the web.
