Spring 2013 Final Exam Schedule

Read over the study guide to the Kite Runner that is on the blog. This will help direct your reading, make you aware of important topics or elements in the novel. Depending on how you learn, it could help to make notes, either in the text or notebook; I’m a very big fan of notes that help me remember.

First day of class next week: discussion of ideas/topics/questions covered in the study guide. I will also answer questions YOU may have about the book. As you read, make notes if you have questions. Do not expect to be “finished” with the book once you have turned the last page. The point of English 1102 and this final assignment, is to realize that often it is important to go back into the book, to dig information and details that you might have missed in the initial reading. This is another reason to take notes in the book as you read.

Second day of class next week: a QUICK Quiz over the book. This shouldn’t take more than 15-20 min. of our time. It will be objective and we will have time to discuss major ideas/topics in the novel, as we started doing on Monday/Tuesday.

Our last regular day of class will fall on either Monday, the 29^th, or Tuesday, the 30^th, the next week. If we have not discussed writing about literature, we will do so then.

REMEMBER: you can use one 4x6 index card on your final exam, which will be an essay over the novel.
