This summer will be a chance for all of us to get to know each other. Though the guided discussion prompts focus on the literary nature of novels, discussion responses are open for any logical and educated observation in your required readings. Two discussions are required per week, one answering the guided prompt, and another responding to the observations of your classmates. Robert Frost once said, "Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or self confidence". I concur with this statement, and it will be the building block of our online and class discussions. Be respectful of everyone's comments.
Comment below with your name and choice book for this summer by May 28th.
This makes me want to cry, Sonia style. Feel free to throw in a comment under posts anytime. Your class, my first group of AP-ers, will always be honorary AP kids. Go forth and do great things, Mini Hulsey.

I am not a Twain fan, but you may enjoy this. He has his place in American Literature, I suppose.

This makes me incredibly happy! One of my favorites. The female Fitzgerald, I believe.

I love Faulkner. He is brilliant, and you will enjoy this, Morgan. This is excellent practice for "As I Lay Dying"
