Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope this note finds you all well. I wanted to give you an update about the last three weeks in AP Literature and Composition.

What's Next?
The last three weeks before report cards are going by quickly! On Thursday I will introduce the How to Read Literature Like a Professor Project, which is based off of the humorous but informative book by Thomas C. Foster. Learners do not need to obtain a copy of the book; I have a class set and a .pdf of the text. The study of Foster's book will be ongoing throughout the semester.
The 1st six weeks will end on October 2nd. We will be reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley in the 2nd six weeks. I wanted to let you know ahead of time to start acquiring this book. I also encourage the learners to check out the Book Xchange box in our school library to see if they might obtain a copy there. The book is also free on iBooks for learners who like to read on their iPads.
New Books in Our Library
If you would like to continue helping build our library, you are welcome to donate books that you no longer wish to keep at your home. We are looking only for books that our learners desire to read. Just send any books to school with your learner, and your family's donation will be remembered inside the book cover.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Thank you for your continued support inside and outside of the classroom!
