12AP Literature/Comp. Daily Slides
Review slides as you need.
If you are absent, it is your responsibility to review the slides prior to returning to class following an absence. Review slides first, then ask any relevant questions during office hours. I will not take time during class to go over what was missed the previous class period (unless it's to review specific material).
Bring a notebook to class every day to capture notes, write responses, add literary terms, and add tone words.
Our focus in 12 AP Literature and Composition is:
***to explore and understand what literature can teach us about the human condition.
***to practice and apply the inductive thinking process to deepen the understanding of literary works (prose, poetry, drama).
***to explain and provide evidence of HOW literary and poetic devices function within a work. Simply identifying literary devices in a work is basic; analyzing how devices function is where critical thinking occurs.
