CLASS SYNOPSIS
Students will read and analyze The Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien in order to better understand the exciting world behind the fantasy book The Lord of the Rings through comprehension questions

OVERVIEW
    • This is a read-and-discuss course. Discussion revolves around analysis based on the chapters read.  Content listed below “CONTENT”
    • Students will read 3 chapters prior to each class
    • The class will engage in analytical discussion revolving around instructor prompts/questions

CONTENT 
    • The Silmarillion provides several opportunities for rich analytical discussion.
    • Literary element instruction (as opportunity presents itself from the text)
    •  Since The Lord of the Rings revolves around an expansive (and beautifully complicated) fictional universe, a presentation of original resources that enrich the reading of the novel (maps / diagrams / explanations of the lore) may be presented
    • Class discussion will revolve around the following novel-centered themes:
        ‣ Hope vs Despair
        ‣ Trauma and Tragedy
        ‣ Good vs Evil
        ‣ Myth Legend and Faerie
        ‣ Cosmogony

TEACHING STYLE
    • I want my students to discuss, interact, and learn from each other! Every chance I get,  I will encourage them to respond to other’s ideas
    • I hope to facilitate conversation, protect think-time, and pose questions that provoke deeper thought based on the central text
    • I hope that students feel as welcomed to think as they are challenged in their thinking. 
    • While I will challenge students to think deeply, their perspective will always be encouraged and celebrated
    • I love interacting with my students!  I will be apart of the conversation as well 😁
    • Lecture-style lessons will be taught to ensure all students comprehend concepts and themes

Orientación para padres
NOTE: The following subjects will be approached with maturity and an educational perspective. SEXUAL CONTENT • Romance is minimally involved with sexual content nearly nonexistent • Characters fall in love and run away with each other • The villain is described as having perverse lust for a beautiful elven princess. She uses this obsession to cause him to fall asleep and allow her to escape inprisonment VIOLENCE • Creatures and entities that could be deemed frightening • Magic, fantasy violence, death, war, torture including dismemberment • Suicide RELIGION RACISM SEXISM AND SOCIAL NEGATIVITIES • Magic and spirituality, including fictional gods and their creation of The Lord of the Rings world • General theological discussions may take place in response to the gods of The Lord of the Rings (not specific to any religion, however, it should be noted that the author was a Catholic so it may lean towards a secular analysis of Christian imagery and discussion at times) PROFANITY • None DRUGS/ALCOHOL • Drunkenness NOTE: I cannot control the perspectives of all members of the class, however, I will hold students to respectfulness and acceptance of their peers
