Class Description

This course teaches students the basics for how to analyze literature. Students learn how to discuss the plot, characters, setting, and action of a piece of literature so that when they enter late middle school and early high school they are familiar with the process. This is done through a creative way of involving students as they take turns each week being vocabulary detectives, character coordinators, discussion leaders, etc.
