British Literature (1 cr) will consist of analyzing and discussion on a wide range of British Literature. We start with the 20th c novel Animal Farm and end the year with Beowulf. 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, Robinson Crusoe, Frankenstein, Jane Eyre, A Christmas Carol, Dorian Gray, Pride and Prejudice, The Princess and the Goblin, The Lost World, Paradise Lost, Legends of King Arthur and Beowulf. Assignments: Guided reading activities, vocabulary proficiency (50%), projects (20%), 2 Essays (15%), and a mid-term and final (15%).We will also experience High Tea, have costume contests, create a monster, create a class short story, play games and celebrate Hobbit Day. 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 class As a believer in Classical Education, my classes are driven with discussion over lecture. However, I will be using white boards and screen sharing to present information as well.
Metas 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/informative essays. Students will also gain knowledge about the author and contextual backgrounds of the texts.

Orientación para padres
Some of the literature we will be reading include mature themes. For example, Canterbury Tales has some sexual content, although we will not be focusing on those stories. Robinson Crusoe has elements of racism that we do not find appropriate today. The Arthur Legends have themes of incest and 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 .
