주당 2-4시간. Students will be expected to watch movies as assigned and complete the accompanying movie worksheet (typically one movie each week). During non-film weeks, students will be expected to complete a weekly reading assignment instead. Reading in this class is minimal, and will be either in the form of a graphic novel or short stories. Students may begin reading or watch films in advance if they wish. In addition, once our poetry unit is complete, students will be tasked with watching 1-3 spoken word poems each week or reading 1-3 poems, and completing the poetry response worksheet. All projects must also be completed at home. Students are encouraged to join a weekly study hall session so that they may work together on homework assignments and get extra assistance from me when needed.

Students shall be evaluated overall by a combination of engagement, progression, and learning. Rather than waste time on trivial grading, much of the work in this course is designed as exercises in order to promote student development. Students that are actively engaged and put forth the effort will excel with the assessments. That being said, it is the finish product that is more important when it comes to student assessment. Students shall maintain all work as assigned in a digital folder or physical notebook. As most assignments are designed as practice exercises, these will typically be scored as credit/no credit based on effort and completion. Daily assignments and regular homework will be kept in this file and submitted for scoring at the end of the trimester.

*There are THREE different courses in my "Outside the Box" collection all following the same style and format, but with different texts and films. This listing is for the original "Outside the Box: High School English for the Reluctant, Creative, and Terrified." Be sure to also check out "Outside the Box, Too: Genre Studies" and "Outside the Box: ELA Middle School/High School Bridge." 

**This is a  full-year curriculum for  grades 10-12,  divided into two semesters. Separate enrollment is required for each semester. Semesters may be taken independently or consecutively; however, be advised that units will build on each other to some degree.  Semesters are subject to vary in length in an effort to schedule the course in accordance with traditional, American holiday breaks. While this is designed as a full-year course, each semester shall be priced differently based on the total number of meetings. The full length of the course shall be 32 weeks, meeting once a week. This listing is for semester 1 only. Please see the bottom of class experience for the full year curriculum map.

***This course is designed as an alternative to traditional high school English courses for reluctant and creative learners, aligned with core standards for grades 9-12, and is taught by an experienced and credentialed teacher.  Letter grades are available for each semester upon request.

As an alternative English, we will replace the heavy reading with films and graphic novels, analyzing them and discussing them through a literary lens, the same as if we were reading the books. Sure, reading would be better, but core standards and analysis can be taught through film as well. As we work our way through films, we will also  incorporate weekly poetry and comic book superheroes as we examine  comic books as modern folklore through a series of mini units laced through all three trimesters. Our writing focus will also shift, working more with fun and creative writing exercises that are low stakes and only require students to give their best. In lieu of stressful exams and formal essays, students will instead be tasked with creative projects that will allow them freedom while at the same time still conveying an argument.

Combining project-based instruction with class discussion, my classes are anything but ordinary.  My often unorthodox and creative approaches to teaching require students to think in ways they never imagined, inspiring both critical and creative thinking. My fun writing exercises empower students’ voice and encourage them to develop as writers, both formally and creatively, without the burdens and limitations that often come with old school teaching techniques. But above all, it is the relationships that I build with the students that really drives the classroom experience.  

This course in designed to teach higher level critical and creative thinking skills through in-depth literary analysis of prose, poetry, and film, and project based learning.  Students will also work to develop and hone their writing skills through a variety of creative and formal writing exercises.  In order to better facilitate student learning, this coursed has been designed more thematically rather than in a linear fashion.  Films have been selected because they meet on of the following criteria: A) are based on a classical work of literature traditionally taught in high school, B) are considered to be an “all-time great film,” or C) provide a perfect example for literary analysis as it pertains to theme, symbolism, characterization, or other key significant literary elements.


In this course students will…
-determine theme;
-analyze plot and its various phases;
-examine how literary elements affect plot progression, assist in character development, and convey meaning, including: motif, symbol, foreshadowing, echoing, flashback, opposition, metaphor, irony, foil, choice of language; 
-understand the mono-myth (Hero’s Journey), The Heroine’s Journey, The Villain’s Journey, and character archetypes;
-develop an understanding of modern pop-culture.

This course provides opportunities to for students to develop the following skills:
1.Explain the function of character.
2.Explain the function of setting.
3.Explain the function of plot and structure.
4.Explain the function of the narrator or speaker.
5.Explain the function of word choice, imagery, and symbolism.
6.Explain the function of comparison.
7.Develop textually substantiated arguments about interpretations of a portion or whole text.

Please note that I acknowledge that this course contains a lot of content; however, it is my goal to work at the best pace of the students. With that in mind, our general calendar is subject to change when extra time is needed for individual units or topics. This may also result in some material being omitted if necessary to fit within our schedule. 

While we will primarily be focusing on the film version of major literary works, students may choose to read the novels instead. In addition, excerpts from the novels will often be used in class.

Daily class structure
While this may vary from time to time, our daily class structure will usually follow the same format.
-First five activity (5-10 minutes): Class will begin with a short writing prompt as a warm up. Students will be admitted early and the prompt will be on the screen. This is a short, informal written response, designed to promote student discussion.
-Class discussion with mini lectures and lessons as needed (40-60 minutes). Using the film write-ups as a guide, we will discuss and take notes on literary elements as they relate to theme. We will also use the films and texts to discuss significance in contemporary society and individual lives
Closing writing (20 minutes). Fun creative and formal writing exercises.

Projects
Students will complete two projects during each semester. Projects will have some simple guidelines and a general concept/suggested approach; however, students may also present alternative ideas. The first project of the semester will be the smaller of the two, and the final project will be much more elaborate.

Semester 1
1.Poetry project
2.Bust/self model with Vision Board
	
Homework
Students will be expected to watch movies as assigned and complete the accompanying movie worksheet (typically one movie each week). During non-film weeks, students will be expected to complete a weekly reading assignment instead. Reading in this class is minimal, and will be either in the form of a graphic novel or short stories. Students may begin reading or watch films in advance if they wish. In addition, once our poetry unit is complete, students will be tasked with watching 1-3 spoken word poems each week or reading 1-3 poems, and completing the poetry response worksheet. All projects must also be completed at home.

Grading
Students shall be evaluated overall by a combination of engagement, progression, and learning.  Rather than waste time on trivial grading, much of the work in this course is designed as exercises in order to promote student development.  Students that are actively engaged and put forth the effort will excel with the assessments. That being said, it is the finish product that is more important when it comes to student assessment.

Students shall maintain all work as assigned in a digital folder or physical notebook.

In lieu of formal exams, this course will use essays and projects as the primary form of student assessment. Projects must be submitted on the date due. Work submitted after the deadline may not be evaluated or scored.

All assignments will be graded based on the 5-point scale, then weighted appropriately.

The 5-point scale:
A=5 (4.5-5): Far surpasses all standards and expectations
B=4 (3.5-4.4): above average, exceeds standard
C=3 (2.5-3.4):  Meets standard expectations and requirements
D=2 (1.5-2.4): Needs improvement/meets some expectations but falls below standard
F= 1 (0-1.4): Does not meet standard expectations
0=0: did not turn in or did not complete

Weighting (per trimester)
30%  Engagement and effort
20%  Homework/daily assignments (Trimester folder)
20%  Mini project
30%  Final Project

(A note on grading: My classes are designed to be easy to pass provided students put forth the effort; however, I do not grade easily. I expect my students to always give me their best effort, but quality of a finished product and assessment of learning, knowledge, and understanding require more than just effort.

학부모 가이드
This course is designed for mature students and some of the films do have an "R" rating. In most cases this is due to mature themes, strong language, and/or violence. Sexual content is minimal or nonexistent in most films, and usually in form of language or off-screen, rather than graphic imagery. Parents should preview films prior to student viewing. we will be approaching these films as works of literature, paying close attention to theme, plot, character development, and symbolism, so in most cases the "R" elements will not be discussed heavily, but at times it will be necessary. If parents object to any of the "R" rated films, students are then encouraged, under the guidance of parents, to research and read film summaries online so that they are at least somewhat familiar with the film's story structure and characters to help facilitate class discussion and analysis. "R" rated films are noted in the course description for the entire year, then noted again in the parental guidance section for each trimester. Films not noted as "R" hold a PG or PG-13 rating. Parents should review all course material prior to enrolling and are encouraged to ask any questions that they may have about the source material, as individual sensitivities are always liable to vary. "R" Rated film in Trimester 1 “The Shawshank Redemption” [R]
