Welcome back from the weekend, Sophomores,
This should prove a busy week. We will be finishing up the Age of Reason unit by reading the short story "Harrison Bergeron," a modern story, and looking at it in the context of the Declaration of Independence and by reading an excerpt from Letters from an American Farmer. After a review, you will have a test on this period (Thursday or Friday). So be prepared.
The next unit is a fun one, in my estimation, because we finally get to the point in US literature when fiction is introduced. We will read a few of the earliest short stories and excerpts from early novels and we will learn to recognize the characteristics of Romanticism. Look forward to some fun and interesting discussion in this coming unit.
See you soon!
Mrs. SO
