1 Jefferson Township High School Language Arts Department Summer Reading th Grade Honors With the input from faculty, students, parents and community members, we are proud to announce the summer reading program for the high school. In order to continue to foster positive reading experiences and make connections to what you will be studying next year, please complete the following: First, please select and read one of the novels as listed. You may choose any novel on this list. You might consider what type of reading you like to do. The purpose of this is to have you find something you would enjoy. As you read, you are encouraged to use the guide to record notes and concepts. This will NOT count as part of your grade but should serve as a resource so that when you are assessed in September, you can recall what you have read. When you return in September, you will be given an assessment where you will be asked to apply what you have read. This will count as a test grade and should be taken seriously as you plan for a successful academic school year. You should read carefully for the following themes: Trustworthiness Respect Responsibility Fairness Caring Citizenship These six qualities are viewed by many as being the key to being an ethical and good person. As these themes are universal, think about other universal concepts associated with the summer reading Second, read the novel Pride and Prejudice written by Jane Austen and complete the attached study guide. You must read the novel and work on the study guide independently. See the sheet for specific instructions and requirements. Third, please read Shakespeare s Twelfth Night. After reading, please respond to the following prompt in a well-developed, well-planned, and wellanalyzed essay (2 pages typed in MLA formatting): (Please see reverse side of this sheet for specific requirements for your paper)
2 In a majority of early British literature, women have existed in the background. They have poured wine or have given tokens to knights, but rarely have existed as independent characters. However, with the rise of female power through the monarchy (think Elizabeth I), women s roles also became more progressive in literature. Using both Austen s Pride and Prejudice and Shakespeare s Twelfth Night, please determine how female characters sought independence or power and what impediments stood in their way. To what extent was a British female able to escape society s gender roles, and to what cost or benefit? Be certain to utilize specific examples from each text. Adhere to proper MLA formatting including in-paragraph citations and a works cited. All work will be due Friday, September 3, Since these are summer reading assignments, no late work will be accepted. You will find rubrics for how you will be graded on the school website as well. We hope you have a wonderful summer. Happy Reading! Please feel free to contact Mrs. Knutelsky, the Language Arts Supervisor, if you have any questions. You can also her at RKnutelsky@jefftwp.org. You may also contact Mrs. Smith at KSmith@jefftwp.org or Mr. Barbato SBarbato@jefftwp.org
