Hello, returning and new students to the world of AP Lit, a book club with a plethora of terms attached to it!
Today's class started off with your first participation grade, so if you are an absentee, you will need to see me before or after school to make up these points.
Then, you received your butterfly-laden syllabus with all the incredible, moving, intriguing texts that will compose this course. And with the syllabus in hand, the next stage was the toolbox term list. Toolboxes are highly recommended to help you learn and utilize literature devices and terms during quizzes, readings, and in-class discussion. Incorporating literary terms - especially when we are in the poetry world - add to your level of discussion and interpretation. The toolbox may be an index card holder or a Steno notebook (provided). Have your toolbox or pick up your Steno notebook during Monday's class.
Tomorrow's class will feature some card games to help you with your literary terminology, and we will be close reading side-by-side poems regarding that lovely Helen of lore.
