Synonyms, This is a Test

Today we completed work on Synonyms and Antonyms -- a worksheet. It was completed in class by all students and then we went over answers.
We had some quiet reading time.
We read the play This is a Test from our Sightlines textbook.

We reviewed some key terms: drama, genre, poetry, prose, dialogue

Students hopefully realized that the surreal (unreal) elements of the play were present because they represented the main character's state of mind. Moreover, Alan the protagonist became anxious and almost paranoid as he was writing his test -- probably a result of some poor study habits.
