3 Dear Incoming 8th Grade I/G Students and Families: Each year, the incoming 8th grade I/G group reads a challenging novel. This summer, I d like the students to purchase, read, and annotate Uncle Tom s Cabin, by Harriet Beecher Stowe. As you may know, this novel was an influential part of the antislavery movement and was read by hundreds of thousands of Americans. Stowe wrote it not only to entertain, but also to persuade people of the evils of slavery. In that sense, the book can be seen as a piece of propaganda: information used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view. As you re reading, pay attention to the usual literary elements (plot, setting, characterization, theme, etc.), but focus primarily on one big question about the author s craft: How does Stowe attempt to persuade her readers of the evils of slavery? THE BIG PICTURE When you arrive back at school in the fall, we will read another piece of abolitionist literature: Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. Unlike Uncle Tom s Cabin, Douglass book is nonfiction. Douglass was born a slave and escaped to the North, where he became a well-known antislavery writer, lecturer, and activist. With his book as well, our essential question will be: How does Douglass attempt to persuade his readers of the evils of slavery? Then we ll compare how these two authors with different perspectives and experiences craft their books to achieve the same purpose. Purchase and read over the summer: Title: Uncle Tom s Cabin Author: Harriet Beecher Stowe ISBN: Publisher: Barnes & Noble Pages: 442 Make sure you have a copy in the fall: Title: Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass Author: Frederick Douglass ISBN: Publisher: Signet Classics Pages: 128 Annotations As for the process of reading itself, you may find yourself struggling at first to adjust to Stowe s oldfashioned voice. However, the plot is intended to be thrilling and students generally find themselves very interested once the daring escapes and dangerous confrontations begin. At 442 pages, it is quite long; know yourself as a reader and allow yourself an appropriate amount of time. Please annotate for the following things. In the first week of school, there will be an assessment on the novel which will include a test of the quality of your annotations. We will also have a seminar. I want you to enjoy the novel; an annotation every 3-4 pages is plenty. I recommend that you list the bolded words in the inside cover of your book: Characterization: Take note when new characters are introduced and when the author directly or indirectly communicates their traits to the reader.

4 Plot: Make predictions. Note when events surprise you. Make a mark when a major event occurs. Christianity: What characters are Christian? Which are not? How does religion affect one s behavior? How does this relate to slavery? Family: What events does Stowe use to demonstrate the importance of family? How does it relate to slavery? ENJOY the book. I m excited to share it with you and I can t wait to hear your insights in the fall! Sincerely, Mr. Jensen apjensen@cps.edu

5 Incoming 8th Grade Non-I.G. Summer Reading Dear Incoming 8 th Grade Non- I.G. Students and Families, Summer break is almost here! As 8th grade approaches, I would like families to know what they need to do to be prepared for next year. There is one required assignment and one extra credit (recommended) assignment. Please direct any questions to Mr. Jensen (apjensen@cps.edu) or Mr. Thompson (gthompson1@cps.edu). Thank you and enjoy your summer! Sincerely, Mr. Jensen Mr. Thompson REQUIRED ASSIGNMENT: Chasing Lincoln s Killer or Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln s Killer (optional) Title: Chasing Lincoln s Killer (required) Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer (optional) Author: James L. Swanson Publisher: Harper Perennial or HarperCollins Length: Chasing Lincoln s Killer (194 pages) ISBN-13: As you read, annotate using an annotation bookmark (attached). Write one sentence summarizing the main idea in each chapter. For example, don t just have a bunch of exclamation marks- write a comment about the main idea- or what you found interesting in each chapter. In the first week of school, you will receive a grade for your summaries/annotations. You will also participate in a Socratic Seminar/class discussion about the text. It s a fast-paced book, so read closely, read actively and enjoy yourself.

6 RECOMMENDED ASSIGNMENT Extra Credit 1. Watch the film 2. Complete a Movie Review Title: The Conspirator Director: Robert Redford Length: 2 hours 2 minutes Rating: PG13 Please complete the Movie Analysis worksheet (attached). Research the historical events and context of Chasing Lincoln s Killer, then think about how it contrasts with The Conspirator. How does the plot and characters compare between the book and the film? How does the director handle the retelling of the historical facts? Why do you think the director wanted to recount this historical event in film version? There are many LITERARY TERMS you will need to apply while filling out the analysis sheet. Make sure that you can define the following terms. Applying a skill is much more challenging than defining it. Do your best- that s all I ll ever require. plotconflict forces- (5) man vs man, self, nature, society, fate resolutioncharacter traitsprotagonistantagonistmotivequestironyforeshadowingsymbolismtheme-
