Nivel de inglés: desconocido
In this class, students will be introduced to "Lord of the Flies," discuss key themes from the text, and cover all of the important elements of the book! This is a classic summer reading and in-school selection, and there's not time like summer to get ahead on understanding the book. Students will walk away with a complex, nuanced, and deep understanding of the book and its meaning, and will be able to apply this to their schools in the fall! Please note: Nightly HW reading will be assigned; we will read the book together, though students are invited to read the novella in advance of the course.

Orientación para padres
While Lord of the Flies often appears on lists of banned books, this is due to its graphic depictions of violence. However, we will treat these artistic choices seriously and understand the author’s purpose for including these key moments in the text. (See the “teacher expertise” section for more information about this.)

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
While "Lord of the Flies" is traditionally a "banned book," many schools consider it a classic part of the literary cannon. I have much experience handling sensitive topics. Though there is no profane language in this text, there are scenes that include some level of violence and death. We will go over these scenes and understand their significance in detail, as I have done with many groups of students over the past several years since my school has adopted the book as part of our curriculum.
