Homework will include reading and completing comprehension, literary device questions as well as vocabulary. A book review will be due at the end of the course, much of this will be discussed in class. Please submit homework prior to the start of the next class-for example if assigned Monday, submit before the Wednesday class. Preferred one day, yet understand we are teaching worldwide so prior to the start of class is ok. Cannot submit after the class as we are reviewing homework.
