EWRT1B-16: midterm

The midterm is 100 points total and consists of two parts.

• Part 1- Short answer. Four questions about the readings in the class (short stories and plays). Five points each.
• Part 2- In-class essay. There will be a series of prompts for you to choose from. The prompts will ask you to connect one of the plays with one of the short stories. The prompts deal with common themes and characterization. 80 points.
  

You may use your book and a dictionary, but no notes. Please bring paper, but an examination book is not necessary.

To study, look over the reading responses. Check out the prompts listed here on the blog. Also, look over any notes you have. The essay prompts are taken from concepts we discussed in class. I'd suggest starting with the plays since there are only two of them and making a list of similarities between them and the short stories. Again, look for similarities of theme and character.
