1 AP ENGLISH LITERATURE AND COMPOSITION Mrs. Liebson T1 (Aug 14 - November 6) The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. --JRR Tolkien According to the College Board, the goal of AP English Literature and Composition is to engage students in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. Assessments include essays, exams, special projects, creative writing, a research paper, and minor assignments, including a reading notebook and vocabulary quizzes. (Approximately every other Friday, students are tested over 10 assigned vocabulary words.) Essays, research papers, and other homework must be submitted in hard copy. Late papers will be penalized 10 points per day. Students are expected to be in class, on time, and to participate in class discussions. One of the essays required for the first trimester is a 650-word personal or college application essay. Options for the Common Application essay: (1) some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story. (2) The lessons we take from failure can be fundamental to later success. Recount an incident or time when you experienced failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience? (3) Reflect on a time when you challenged a belief or idea. What prompted you to act? Would you make the same decision again? (4) Describe a problem you ve solved or a problem you d like to solve. It can be an intellectual challenge, a research query, an ethical dilemma anything that is of personal importance, no matter the scale. Explain its significance to you and what steps you took or could be taken to identify a solution. (5) Discuss an accomplishment or event, formal or informal, that marked your transition from childhood to adulthood within your culture, community, or family. Rough drafts of college application essays are due September 18, revised
2 drafts October 2, and final drafts October 20. Check college application deadlines. Note that some colleges require an essay on a topic of their own choosing in addition to or in place of the Common Ap essay. I ll be happy to help you with those, too. 8/14.
