👋 WELCOME 😁 If this is your first class with me, use this coupon code: VANCEFIRSTCLASS10 7th, 8th, and 9th grade students will enjoy the month of June by studying this classic novel by Sandra Cisneros through analysis, discussion, and nonfiction texts OVERVIEW • This is a read-and-discuss course. Discussion revolves around analysis based on the chapters read. Content listed below “CONTENT” • Students will read 50 pages (20 chapters; they are as short as two pages long sometimes) prior to class each class • Additional text-related nonfiction articles will be assigned to students throughout the course that will sharpen their understanding of concepts being discussed • The class will engage in analytical discussion revolving around instructor prompts/questions CONTENT The House on Mango Street provides several opportunities for rich analytical discussion. Class discussion will revolve around the following novel-centered concepts over the following topics: • Literary Elements • Biographical influence • Contemporary Literary Period • Gender and Identity • Feminism • Inequality and discrimination • Individuality •.Trauma 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 • Tied to all of my literature courses is an exclusive private tutoring session on Fridays for only $10. When students sign up the course, they will be given a link to that session that they can attend when needed for homework help and instructor-guidance on papers and reading • The idea of providing a grade and then moving on is not my style. If a student is willing to persevere, I want to keep working with them until the learning goals have been achieved SCHEDULE Class 1: Introductions, goals, instructions, and Arthur Conan Doyle Biography Class 2: pages 3-50 Class 3: pages 51-109 ✨CELEBRATE EVERY SEASON WITH ME THROUGH THE STUDY OF CLASSIC NOVELS:✨ Check out my other “Season’s Readings” courses: ❄️JANUARY The Call of the Wild by Jack London https://outschool.com/classes/seasons-readings-classic-novel-study-of-the-call-of-the-wild-for-middle-school-7ijxLgNh?usid=HjYuHv99&signup=true&utm_campaign=share_activity_link 💌FEBRUARY The Great Gatsby by F.
