Homework due the day of your final

NOTE: In order to use the second graphic organizer for "The Hamilton Mixtape", your outline for SCR 2 and/or your annotated copy of the text on your final, you must have your name written clearly on ALL THREE documents.  Not having your name on any one of these will result in them being taken away from you.  The same rules apply for your index card.
 
Assignment 1 of 4: 
Finish the outline for the second paragraph of your final.  You will be allowed to use this outline as a resource when taking the written portion of your final (first hour of the period).  
 
Prompt
What character trait of Alexander Hamilton’s does Lin-Manuel Miranda consider most notable? How does he use specific poetic devices in “The Hamilton Mixtape” to highlight this trait for audiences?
 
• Focus on ONE significant character trait Hamilton exhibits.
• Identify TWO different poetic devices Miranda uses in the song.
• Use ONE quote from the text as an example of each poetic device
• Connect BOTH quotes (both examples of poetic devices being used) to the character trait you chose.
 
Before Writing …
• Step 1: Think about all the traits Miranda uses to describe Hamilton in the song, then pick just ONE that Miranda emphasizes above the rest. 
• Step 2: Find quotes that support this trait in the text. (The best quotes to use will show use of multiple poetic devices)
• Step 3: Determine what poetic devices Miranda uses in these quotes.
• Step 4: Pick TWO poetic devices used in your quotes to focus on (there may be several).
• Step 5: Make sure you have ONE strong quote from the text for EACH poetic device.
 
 
Assignment 2 of 4:
 
Study for your finals!!!!!!!  That means rereading every text since August and studying your notes on each (annotations, definitions, Do Nows, graphic organizers, etc.).  A list of every text and the types of questions you may be asked is posted to Google Classroom.
 
Your multiple-choice final will be 50 questions long, with 2-5 questions for each of the texts we've read this year.  You will also have 2-4 questions on the material you studied for the Narrative Elements Quiz.  Questions will require you to know what happens in each story and be able to analyze passages from the text.  
 
You will write two CEL paragraphs on "The Hamilton Mixtape" as the written portion of your final.  The first paragraph will be worked on in the classes leading up to finals week.  The second will be completed the day of the final.  For the second, you will have access to your paragraph outline and annotated copy of the text.  I reserve the right to deny you access to either or both of these if you break the rules governing their use (wait for further information on this closer to finals week).
 
 
Assignment 3 of 4:
 
You will be allowed a 3x5" index card for the multiple-choice portion of the test.  You may fill both sides of the index card with any notes you want to have for this portion of your final.
 
In order to use this index card on the final, you must remember to bring it on the day of the final.  Not bringing it means you will have to redo it during the study hall period or go in blind.
 
Some students will earn the right to a second index card if they are part of the winning group at the end of the Finals Review Game on Monday.
 
Ways your index card will be taken from you:
1)  It has copied and pasted parts of your SCRs or of the texts with annotations.
2)  It is larger than 3x5"
3)  It does not have your name on it
4)  It has someone else's name on it (that's Ethics Committee for you both)
