A Good Way to Study for the Poetry section of the final

I thought of a great way to study the poetry unit in preparation for the final on Monday. I made a notecard for each author and wrote on the back of it a brief biography that highlighted the key points that we will have to know for the test. Then I made a card for each poem that that poet wrote and wrote a brief summary and the vocab definitions on the flip side. A good way to get material to use in the summary is to look at the quiz questions, because Laz said that most of the questions would come off of the quizes. It may seem hard and time consuming but you will learn some of the material while you are writing it on the cards, and once you have them made up it will make studying much more organized and time efficient.
