British Literature and Composition (1st Semester) will consist of analyzing and constructing literary critiques as they read a wide range of British Literature. We start with an Essay Bootcamp using Alice in Wonderland as our source material. We will go step-by-step through reading, annotating, thesis writing, essay organization and the final product with citations.
I will be discussing the use of AI with the students. For this class, unless expressed permission is given by me, AI in any form is not allowed.
Books/Works: Alice in Wonderland, Animal Farm, The Hobbit, The Princess and the Goblin, The Lost World, Dorian Gray and Jane Eyre.
Assignments: Guided reading activities, vocabulary proficiency (15%), projects (20%), 2.5 Essays (50%), and a mid-term exam (15%).
Supplies: books/poems from either public domain or local library
youtube access for free audiobooks if so desired (links will be provided)
additional handouts from me, printed
tons of sticky notes for annotations
word or google docs access
something to snack or to drink while we have our classMetas de aprendizaje
Students will be able to read classic British Literature (in the context of the times) and analyze through their own, unique worldview. Using the tools of invention, they will create theses, and support those theses in well-organized persuasive papers.

Fuentes
Some of the literature we will be reading include mature themes. For example, the discussion of Oscar Wilde and his book Dorian Gray has some homosexual content.
Many others have themes of dark-arts or magic. Many stories were written from a Judeo-Christian author point of view and those views are expressed in their writing, while some authors were unapologetically agnostic. Animal Farm is written from a western viewpoint and is clearly anti-communist.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I am a certified IEW teacher and have used this method to homeschool my own children who have successfully completed college composition and literature courses. (Hurray!) I have taught British Literature in traditional classrooms, co-ops for homeschooling students, via google meet classes and around my own kitchen table. Reseñas
