9th Lit Honors

Introduction


Welcome to 9th Grade Lit Honors. I look forward to working with each and every one of you over the coming year in discovering what literature is telling us and how it fits into today's world no matter what year it was written. Please refer to the syllabus for any questions or concerns regarding grading or what is expected daily.


Class Resources


Mirrors & Windows textbook-a class set is the only set that we will have.

Mirrors & Windows Grammar workbook-each student will have a workbook for them to use in class. These workbooks will remain in the classroom at all times.

Novels will be assigned to each class and students will be responsible for reading the required assignments and completing any and all coursework as assigned through Google classroom.

Course Overview


We will cover several novels in this class as well as multiple short stories and poetry. We will use those to create presentations, essays (formal and informal), and discussions to understand the topics of the unit better.
