Welcome to Air LC English with Ms. Turner!
In 8th Grade English we will read a variety of short stories, including stories from Edgar Allan Poe and other famous authors. We will also read the following novels throughout the year:Â
Look Both Ways by Jason Reynolds
Dear Martin by Nic Stone
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Night by Elie Wiesel
The goal of this course is to build students' ability to read critically, discern the message and purpose of a text, write with confidence, and collaborate to create meaningful texts and works of their own. Our hope is to encourage students to develop their own voice as a writer, to cultivate their creativity, and to ignite their passion for reading.
