The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien (This book would take at least 3 weeks)
The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkein
Homecoming by Cynthia Voigt (The Tillerman Cycle, Book One)
Dicey's Song by Cynthia Voight (The Tillerman Cycle, Book Two)
Night by Elie Wiesel
Nothing But the Truth by Avi
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck

Students can either purchase the digital or print editions of these books from Amazon.com (I get books for all of my courses there) or borrow books from the library. Students will know at least a week in advance what the next book will be. The Gutenberg Project (https://www.gutenberg.org/) is an additional resource. It has over 54,000 free public domain ebooks.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

1 hour per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
