Welcome Students & Parents!
I am so honored to teach you this year, and I promise to go the extra mile to help you learn as much as you possibly can.

We'll stay busy, explore new material about our own culture and have fun doing it. My goal for you is to be as prepared for your next educational level as you can be by the end of the year. I hope that's your goal, as well.

10th Grade Literature and Compisition is busy! We get ready for PSAT, the SAT and next year's writing test while we have fun reading stories, poetry and essays from the literature book and some great novels.

We will begin the 2nd Semester with Shakespeare's powerful drama of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, followed by more poetry, short stories and interesting non-fiction from the text and other sources. We'll also read another play, 12 Angry Men, and we'll play out a courtroom drama of our own.

Of course, how could we forget our weekly Sadlier Vocabulary study! This gets us ready for that all so valuable college entrance exams that are just around the corner!

Seniors! You have made it! Now all you have to do is finish Senior Project, have fun with all of our reading material and projects and you are out on your own--sort of! All deadlines are on our calendars; the ones set in STONE are:
October 20--Rough Draft is Due
November 17--Final Draft is Due
February 9--Portfolio and Product are due!

Beginning the 2nd semester with Elie Wiesel's NIGHT gives us all a reason to be grateful for all we have. It's a powerful lesson of freedoms that are stolen away for no reason, and it somehow makes doing our product and portfolio much easier. We'll follow this novel up with another novel, All Quiet on the Western Front, a novel about a lost generation of young people who went to war as soon as they graduated from high school! We'll end the year with a lovely romance (finally!), Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice. And, we'll still have fun vocabulary quizzes(SAT words)every Friday--don't forget your flash cards!Be sure to check the calendars for due dates of portfolio checks-don't let the final portfolio/product date surprise you! It comes around sooner than you think!

Bible in Literature
We are excited about all of the possibilities of this class. We explore the New Testament during first semester, reading and re-reading the stories narratives about the life of Jesus, and looking at them in the context of our history and literature classes and how these stories influenced the arts. Hopefully, using this knowledge will improve our application abd recognition of literary devices that will help in our understanding in other classes.

We will read other poetry, essays and the novel BILLY BUDD, by Herman Melville.
