주당 1-2시간. We will read 2 chapters per week. The exception is Week 1, where we will read the prologues. Be aware that number of pages will vary. Students should come to class having already read the material listed for that week. After reading, students will write a 300-500-word reading response to that week's prompt.문자 등급

It’s hard to overstate the impact of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth writings on the fantasy genre and our cultural imagination. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings are essential parts of any fantasy bookshelf. More than staples of popular culture, they are great works of literature dealing with themes such as heroism, vice and virtue, friendship, care for the natural world, and war (political and spiritual). I am thrilled to offer this novel study on the first volume of Tolkien’s epic masterpiece. Like journeying to destroy the One Ring, reading The Lord of the Rings is a quest best undertaken with companions. In this class, we’ll walk together through this pioneer of the high fantasy genre, supporting each other with discussion of events and themes. I will use PowerPoint slides to guide discussion. Topics will include but are not limited to: • Characterization • Themes • Poetry • Literary vocabulary • Style highlights • Places where the films deviate from the text Since there’s so much scope for conversation, tangents are welcome. Students of all levels of familiarity with The Lord of the Rings are welcome: anywhere from never having heard of it to having read The Silmarillion multiple times—I’m happy to have all of you. Because of this, each class will decide its policy on spoilers during the first class meeting. Each week, students will read 2 chapters. Week 1 is different because we will be reading front matter. Then they will write a reading response (300-500 words) to that week's prompt. Students must complete readings before the week they are listed. Since pagination differs by edition, I will not give page numbers. Note that in week 8, chapter numbers start over at 1. LOTR is not a trilogy, but a single novel split into 3 volumes; the first (The Fellowship of the Ring) contains Books 1 and 2. Keywords: literary analysis; poetry analysis; English; language arts; high school; book club; reading group; writing

학부모 가이드
The Lord of the Rings includes:
• Magic
• PG-13 violence: never glorified or described in graphic detail
• Character deaths and lasting grief
• Addiction: to the Ring, not to real-world substances
• Use of alcohol and tobacco
It may occasionally be necessary to touch on Tolkien’s own biography, including his linguistic and literary expertise, experience as a World War I veteran, and Catholic faith. These are not the focus of the class, though.

교사 전문성 및 자격증
석사 학위 영어 Texas A&M University에서
I have a bachelors and masters in English and graduate certificate in Digital Humanities from Texas A&M University. My thesis was titled "Endurance and Hope: Christian Heroism in Tolkien's Legendarium." I examined the interplay between Tolkien's fiction, his scholarship, his faith, and the old Germanic stories he loved so much. I have also written on Tolkien's work on mythology, fairytales, and medieval literature.
I am currently an adjunct professor of English composition at Collin College in north Texas. I have also worked as a graduate assistant teacher of college English classes and freelance tutor for learners from elementary through college level, and I have many years of volunteer experience working with and teaching children in extracurricular activities.리뷰
