Introduction to High School Literature

This course provides a broad introduction to literature and concepts that will prepare high schoolers for future study. We will cover a variety of terms and engage in literary analysis not simply as an academic exercise, but as a means of increasing the richness and delight of our literary experience. The course is organized by genre, with units on short stories, poetry, drama, and non-fiction, with a variety of engaging novels spread throughout.  

Please see the course calendar for meeting time. All class sessions will be recorded.
