Week of September 14th.....

AP Literature:
On Monday, we will review vocabulary from Units 1-4. Then, on Tuesday, students will have a vocabulary test over those four units. Students have had at least five weeks to study and prepare for the test. Then, we will read "Hollow Men" by TS Eliot and discuss how the environment and characterization connect in poetry and prose. Students will also practice multiple choice questions from a released AP exam.


Honors American Literature:
On Monday, we will review vocabulary from Units 1-4. Then, on Tuesday, students will have a vocabulary test over those four units. Students have had at least five weeks to study and prepare for the test. Then, students will have an opportunity to work on their One Book, Many Voices essay as well as their American Dream essays. I do not usually like to assign two essays at once, bu these dates overlapped. The One Book, Many Voices essay is due Friday, the 18th; the American Dream essay is due Monday, the 21st.

Students should also be reading The Scarlet Letter. We will begin our in-depth study of the Puritans next week.

American Literature:
Students are working on their essay in the lab for three days. The paper is due Wednesday. It's a test grade. Then, we will review some grammar and vocabulary at the end of the week.
