Romeo and Juliet Final Test

Our final test on Romeo and Juliet will be on Friday, January 27. The in-class notes you have taking on each scene of the play will also be due on the 27th.

It is important that you are familiar with the major characters, events, and terms we have worked with in this play.

The objective portion of the test will require you to identify the speaker of important lines, the literary devices used in key passages, the elements of plot (Freytag's Pyramid), and basic facts from the play.

I will address the essay portion of the test in class.

To study for the test, I suggest you use multiple resources: the notes you've taken in class, the play itself (remember, you have the web address for an online version), online study aides such as Smoop or Spark Notes, and, of course, your teacher!
