Lit 12 - May 31

Prepare "Song" and "Sonnet 43" for Wed. June 1

Victorian Notes for Thurs. June 2

Eng. 11 - Secret Studying

10 marks = character questions
15 marks = plot questions
5 marks = Shakespearean language
15 marks = paragraph questions
5 marks = dramatic devices
30 marks = identify and explain quotes

Best ways to study: go over your questions and dramatic devices sheet.  (I will not directly test on Aristotelian terms of tragedy) go through the play and pick out important quotes.  Think about how they add to either characterization or structure of the play.

Important Tip: After studying by yourself, study with a partner to test each other on quotes.

*don't spend too much time with Shakespearean language, this is testing how you can understand words in context.
