Students could begin focusing on current events that involve controversial issues or dichotomous perspectives (for example, global warming, stem cell research, offshore oil drilling, raising the minimum wage, tuition-free college to name just a few). They will be writing a persuasive research paper on a controversial topic of their choice, so the more they know about their topic beforehand, the easier and more enriching this project will be.

Also, as honors students, they will be reading one novel independently. The English 3 team of teachers has put together a suggested list of books, but there are innumerous diverse titles from which they could choose.

Caveat: This novel must be a classic American piece of literature (this is an Amercian Lit class after all :).
Please choose a book which has not been read prior to this class!

Important Points:

Novel must be at least 250 pages
Must be an American author (this is an Am Lit class)
Must have been published BEFORE 1985
Cannot be popular fiction
Title must be approved by their teacher, so if they decide to begin this, they'll need to reach out to their instructor to get this approval.

As honors students in English 4, they are expected to read at least one novel independently. The English 4 team of teachers has put together a suggested list of books that directly relate to the seven themes of the course, but there are innumerous diverse titles from which they could choose.

Caveat: This novel must be a classic American or British piece of literature (this is a Brit Lit class after all!).
Please choose a book which has not been read prior to this class!

Important Points:

Novel must be at least 250 pages
Must be a British or American author (this is a Brit Lit class)
Must have been published BEFORE 1985
Cannot be popular fiction
Title must be approved by their teacher, so if they decide to begin this, they'll need to get their selection approved during the first week of the course but if they select one that meets the above criteria it is almost sure to get that approval
