1 World Classics/College Prep English semester course Mrs. Cave Plagiarism is the use of someone else s words, ideas, or theories as your own without giving the author/artist/creator proper credit. Always cite quotations, paraphrased material, images, and sources. The English Department has a zero tolerance policy for plagiarism. The student will receive a zero (0) for the first offense and an will be sent to all teachers detailing the offense. The second offense will result in a zero for the assignment plus a lowered semester grade; the third offense will result in an F for the class. Course Overview and Objectives This course is designed to increase critical reading and writing skills so that the student can better interpret and discuss classic World Literature, and to accustom each student to the demands of college level thinking, writing and workload. This course provides sustained explicit instruction in the areas of: Literary terms and devices Analytical reading strategies Socratic Seminar discussion format Conventions and traits of effective expository prose Practice strategies for successful completion of AP Lit and Comp Exam Guiding Principles: Reading and Writing Weekly reading and discussion of chapters from Thomas C. Foster s How to Read Literature like a Professor help us to build a shared foundation of language for meaningful analysis and interpretation of texts. Students are required to keep a reading journal/notebook for all texts and daily vocabulary, grammar and class discussion notes. Besides daily journal writing, students can expect to write weekly essays, some of which may be timed writes, two processed papers of three to five pages each, and one longer research based literary analysis paper of eight to ten pages. Students are required to meet a minimum of once per grading period with teacher, before or after school, for an individual writing conference. With the exception of daily journal entries, all writing in the class is teacher and peer edited at least once, prior to submission for a grade and selected papers may be re written for a grade up to an A within one week of being returned to student.
2 Daily writing may take the form of journal entries to reflect on in class reading, reaction to and explication of a poem or short story, and/or practice grammar/spelling within context of reading text. Essay topics will most often mirror AP Lit Exam questions 1 and 2. First essays will be processed with first draft teacher and peer edits and as students become familiar with the expectations, timed writes will be incorporated. The Author and Works paper is outlined in the Final class project. It requires extensive research, MLA citation, rigorous self, peer and teacher editing and revising, as well as oral presentation to class. Texts and supplements may include but are not limited to: The Odyssey Homer Things Fall Apart and Related Readings Chinua Achebe Othello, Hamlet, The Tempest Shakespeare Poisonwood Bible Barbara Kingsolver Frankenstein Mary Shelley Oedipus Rex, Antigone Sophocles Medea Euripides A Doll s House Henrik Ibsen The Awakening Kate Chopin Waiting for Godot Samuel Beckett Great Expectations Charles Dickens Writing About Literature E.G.
