1 MYP Year 4/IB 9th Grade English Mount Pleasant High School Summer Work 2018 Overview: Mount Pleasant High School believes in the importance of summer reading to ensure the success of all its students. All Middle Years Programme (MYP) 9 th grade students are required to have read the books and complete the corresponding assignments by the first day of school. Please see the list below for your assigned summer reading. Hello, freshmen! Congratulations on entering MYP Language and Literature! Over the course of the school year in IB English 9 we will focus on the ways in which writers use text as a vehicle to comment and reflect on the local and global issues within the society we live in. This summer you will read two texts to kick off this journey into reading, analyzing, and evaluating texts as an IB 9 Learner. There are TWO (2) required summer readings: 1) Fiction: Select one fictional novel Task: You will complete 3 literary analysis journals (charts) based on this reading. Consider searching lists of top young adult fiction to help make your choice. 2) Nonfiction: Select from the list provided for your choice in nonfiction text. Task: You will complete a quote log based on your choice. Summer assignments are due by Tuesday, September 11, If possible, please type and print. If you have any questions over the summer, please annamaria.agriesti@bsd.k12.de.us

5 Nonfiction Text: Choose from any of the following full-length, nonfiction texts. Complete the quote log assignment to accompany you reading. Head Case: My Brain and Other Wonders by Cole Cohen Struggling with a series of learning disabilities that made it nearly impossible to judge time and space, Cole submits herself to a battery of tests and is diagnosed with a hole in her brain the size of a lemon. This is a story of triumph, as we watch this passionate, loveable, and unsinkable young woman chart a path for herself. Enchanted Air: Two Cultures, Two Wings: A Memoir written by Margarita Engle Cuban? American? Lush island paradise or fast-paced city living? These are the two worlds that Margarita Engle eloquently describes through lyrical, freeverse poems as she attempts to define herself, her family, and her country within the context of being biracial during the United States invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs. I am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban by Malala Yousafzai An autobiography written by the youngest Nobel Prize winner in history. It tells the story of a young Muslim Pakistani girl who was taught to stand up for what she believes. I Will Always Write Back: How One Letter Changed Two Lives by Martin Ganda & Caitlin Alifirenka In this compelling dual memoir, all- American girl Caitlin and Zimbabwe-boy Martin recount how they became best friends --and better people--through their longdistance exchange, changing both of their lives forever. Symphony for the City of the Undead by M.T. Anderson Trapped between the Nazi invading force and the Soviet government itself was composer Dmitri Shostakovich, who would write a symphony that roused, rallied, eulogized, and commemorated his fellow citizens the Leningrad Symphony, which came to occupy a surprising place of prominence in the eventual Allied victory. We've Got a Job: The 1963 Birmingham Children's March, by Cynthia Levinson Focusing on the experiences of four young people who were at the center of a pivotal moment in the American civil rights movement, this is the story of 4,000 black children and teenagers who voluntarily went to jail between May 2 and May 11, In the end, the children succeeded where adults had failed, and one of the most racially violent cities in America was desegregated. The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls The Glass Castle is a remarkable memoir of resilience and redemption, recounting the unconventional, poverty-stricken upbringing Walls and her siblings had at the hands of their deeply dysfunctional parents.
