Challenging Literature Series #1: Wuthering Heights - AP Literature
H.S. students are too busy and probably won't read this if their teachers assign it. It is challenging, but great and worth studying. In this 7-week class, I will read aloud, pointing out key details to ensure they learn and understand.
