Tone List – I mentioned in class that I would post this list – I will hand out copies next week.
NOTICE 3/20/20:
Hi everyone – I hope you are all staying healthy and safe! As you may have heard – through email from Ms. Odom, College Board, or other teachers, the AP test will be a 45-minute home-based test this year. There is still a lot up in the air. From my understanding, the AP Literature will be a typical FRQ written response (most likely a poetry or prose type response). I wanted to put this out to you now as we begin preparing for what the next few weeks will look like. We are still scheduled to start back with remote learning on April 7. As soon as we receive more directives as to what that will look like, I will post another update. In the meantime, take care of yourselves! Thinking of you all.
Literary Focus – This is your chance to take over the start of class. Choose a poem, section of a poem, or excerpt from a novel, short story, or other text to work through with the class on an analysis. Choose any method you wish to present the literary focus, and choose to focus on anything you would like to work on (terms, syntax, interpretation/analysis, theme…). See me if you have trouble or need help.
Here are the calendars for dates you will present (if you were absent on the day of sign-up, you have been assigned to a day , so make sure you know your assigned day).
