I believe that use of technology is crucial in preparing you for your post-High School education and career. In an effort to keep the class engaging and interesting, AND give you some of the tech-savvy skills that will prove useful later in life, we will use this site for discussion and assignments.
These two sites are CRUCIAL to your success in Senior English and they have proven very effective and interesting in previous years.
I look forward to reading your comments on our blog and having a great year!
COURSE INFO: World Lit.
In this class, we will be studying World Literature, a topic that I hope will broaden your appreciation of other cultures and serve as a way to examine your place in the world. We will be reading such texts as Antigone, Things Fall Apart, and Othello, in addition to developing our strength as writers and ability to communicate and challenge ideas effectively. You will be expected to take the initiative to read and write independently in addition to collaborating in groups. This is your final year of high school, and the emphasis is on self-sufficiency and responsibility.
