We are going to read "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," by T. S. Eliot. I meant to do this after we finished "Hamlet." It's not too late. Also, review of vocabulary.
On Thursday/Friday, make sure that you bring all your books. I am working on a review of the exam, including grammar issues and quotes. I finished the exam this weekend. There are four different exams. There will be different essay questions for different classes--all related to Slaughterhouse Five. Each of the four exams uses a different selection of vocabulary words and different selections of quotes. There are six selections--of which you will choose five. There is only one quote in each section. The six sections include: 1. Slaughterhouse Five 2. Hamlet 3. The Odyssey 4. "The Overcoat" 5. Selected Poems 6. "Inferno"--not necessarily in that order.
Thursday/Friday
You will receive classwork credit for having all your books. If you owe money on a book, this will be the day to bring in a check payable to MLWGS and to get a receipt from the office. The check will equal credit for the book. I will provide a selection of quotes. We will break up into groups. As a small group. you will analyze what is important about the quotes. Then we will share with the class.
Homework: Begin studying for your exam.
