What to do?

Sorry I was not in class today. Think I must have gotten food poisoning last night from something and was sick all morning. Was wondering if there was anything that I could work on from the sheets that we get in the beginning of the school year that would help me get caught up for tomorrow. Thanks! hope everyone had a great day.

The Big Read

So, I just briefly mentioned this in class today, but The Big Read is happening here in Wilmington! Obviously, because I am a huge literature nerd, I'm super excited!

Here is a link to the website and it has all the info--check out the events! I'm definitely attending some and I think we should plan on doing something together! Think about it!

I know most of you have read The Great Gatsby, but we will be rereading it and hopefully analyzing it AP Lit style!

I'm so excited about seeing Professor Engle in March!!!!!

1st day of AP Lit

I can't wait for AP Lit to start!

For the first day, bring your English binder (I hope you heeded my advice and did not throw ANYTHING away) because we will be going through it, throwing some things away (per my approval), and reorganizing the sections!

Don't forget to order your AP book ASAP. It's The Princeton Review's Cracking the AP Literature and Composition Exam 2012. You can certainly order the 2013 addition, but save money and order 2012. Here is a link. I think it's going for around $4.00. You don't need it until March, but go ahead and order it.

I would also look over both East of Eden and The Kite Runner. I will definitely be doing this, too! We'll need to go over both novels during the first week back. You'll probably even have an assessment!

Go ahead and put this blog address in your favorites because I'll be using it for the rest of the year. Also, you may want to go to the settings page and find where Blogger will email you when I post. That way, you won't miss anything!

See you soon!
