LA Final Exam

The LA final will have FOUR (4) big “parts” or sets of skills and knowledge.  However, just like in class, these will be woven together and applied to  multiple texts.  For instance, there will not be a "literary analysis section".  There will be literary analysis questions asked about several different texts on the test. 

The review sheets are to make sure you practice the skills and knowledge that will be on the test. The questions will be application of the skills and knowledge we have acquired and refined this year. For instance, I won't ask, "What is bandwagon?"  I will ask you to identify an example of bandwagon or why the author used bandwagon for this particular target audience.

If it's on a VIP, it might be on the Final Exam.
