  1. Literature & Literary Terms Around the World

  2. Rules: Players: We will begin with two players. I will ask a question, and the first person to raise their hand will get to answer the question. NO SHOUTING OUT! Each right answer will earn you 1 bonus point on the practice EOCT. If you answer a true/false question and get the answer incorrect, your competitor continues in the competition. If you both answer a multiple choice or fill in the blank question incorrectly, we’ll flip a coin to see who will continue on in the game.

  3. Rules: Audience: When it is not your turn to play, you should be writing down the questions and answers. This will serve as your study guide. I will collect these after the EOCT practice test, and based off the number of questions and answers written down, give you bonus points!!! If the players answer incorrectly, the 1st person to give me the right answer or tell me why the answer is what it is will receive ½ a point! You can also earn ½ a point extra credit if you are able to tell me why an answer is false or explain the answer for a multiple choice question or statement.
