Welcome to AP Literature! We will be taking a magical journey through all genres of literature including poetry, prose, and non-fiction. You will learn how to critically analyze literature and express criticism and analysis through your writing. Moreover, you will be preparing to pass the AP Lit exam in May.

Please be prepared on the first day of school, August 25, with your summer assignment. You should bring both books, your report on Camus, double-entry journal, and project based on The Stranger.

Remember, no late assignments will be accepted. If you choose not to complete the assignments, you may be asked to drop the course due to a lack of commitment to the rigor of AP Lit.

We will be focusing on Graduation Project and British Literature for the first semester. Please see the calendar for specific due dates.
