Hello All-- Your Variety Show performances were ABSOLUTELY amazing! I hope that you have the opportunity to rest a little after all your hard work and preparation!

Since your Final Exam will be occuring at 9AM on December 14th, I thought it would be best to give you the study guide now.

Your Final Exam will be covering The Bells, The Destruction Of Sennacherib, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, On the Grasshopper and the Cricket, Sonnet LXXIII: That Time of Year, The Altar, Easter Wings, takes talent, To A Snow-flake, and Homer's Iliad Books I and VI.

This exam will have only one section: For 10A, there will be four passage identification and analysis questions. For 10B, there will be three passage identification and analysis questions.

For each passage identification and analysis, you must be able to summarize the plot and significance of the passage in relation to the rest of the story or poem, then identify, define, and explain the significance of at least three dominant literary elements within the passage, and lastly, discuss the purpose of the passage in relation to its theme, tone, or mood.
