Homework Offered
Homework assignments can include but are not limited to, essays, written journal entries, analyses, readings, presentations, and text annotation. Students should plan to spend 1-2 hours per week outside of class to complete assignments. All homework assignments are due every Friday by 10 pm EST if the student would like feedback. I provide feedback on every assignment and will grade assignments upon request. Students should read 20-40 pages a night, depending on the level of the student. The book we are reading has 30 chapters, which averages to reading 5 chapters a week during Unit 3.2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
All learners will receive written feedback from the teacher for all assignments. If you would like a letter grade for assignments and the class, please contact me and I will provide it.Grades Offered

The short story "The Most Dangerous Game" involves characters hunting one another in the jungle, which may be alarming for some. The short story is typically taught because it offers excellent examples of setting, how setting sets the mood in the story, strong vocabulary, and elements of suspense. The short story "The Veldt" takes place in the future when a "smart house" becomes a little too smart and starts attacking the family that lives there. The short story is typically taught as an example of science fiction and also offers lessons on imagery, figurative language, and irony.
