7 and 8 Reading

This course includes literature, writing about sources, and vocabulary skills. Specifically students will read and discuss short stories and learn about figurative language and other literary techniques. They will also read and discuss poetry, novels, and possibly study mythology (if time permits). Possible novels include The Old Man and the Sea, And Then There Were None, and Dr Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde. The novels read depend on the make-up of the class and will be selected at the teacher’s discretion.
