Yesterday we discussed the following for the test today.  If you missed the discussion, please get with other students or me to review any topics you may be concerned about.


Names to know:
  • Obierika
  • Ikemefuna
  • Nwoye
  • Ezinma
  • Chielo
  • Mr. Brown (1st missionary in Umuofia - not killed by tribe w his "iron horse" tied to a tree)
  • Chukwu
  • Unoka
  • Umuofia
  • Mbanta
  • Okonkwo
Topics to study:
  • foreshadowing
  • title significance
  • irony
  • manliness
  • leprosy

  • The Pacification of the Primitive Tribes of Lower Niger
Have fun.  You will have to give "short answers" to the topic questions.  Be sure that you explain your answer and give more that the minimum.  I am grading you on your depth of knowledge and your communication skills, not just your basic understanding of the word at hand.

Click here to see the notes we are taking in class.  Maybe somebody could print this out and give it to JOSH, who doesn't seem to think it is necessary to take notes.

    Mrs. Coller says:

    I will keep this little blog here so you and I can communicate better.  Please note that it does not replace your BRAIN.  Attend class, take notes, ask questions - these are your best and most powerful tools - not the blog.
