End of Year Exam

Well boys, the term is almost over and the End of Year Examinations are two weeks away. Here are the topics you will need to review.

For Literature:

• poetry comprehension
• definition of terms (drama/elements of literature/characters)
• essay questions on all three novels (war/ love and family relationships/ growth and maturity)

The paper will require that you answer all questions in the poetry section and define all the terms asked. The final section will ask that students answer two essay questions, but each question must be from a different novel.

For Language:

• Multiple Choice(comprehension/ sentence completion/ spelling/ punctuation/ synonyms)
• Comprehension (prose/drama/ poetry)
• Story Writing

There may be two papers, multiple choice and long answer. The long paper may only require students to answer comprehension questions and write a short story.

I will be able to tell you more closer to the exam date.

I hope you have all started studying.
