This class is an exploration of the transition from childhood to adulthood. What are your individual strengths and challenges? How are you influenced by your family, friends, and various environments? How much do you know about your history and heritage? What are your core beliefs and values, and how do those shape how you deal with challenges? What are your goals for completing high school and the immediate years after high school? To help us on this journey, we’ll read four novels focused on different aspects of "coming of age" and Malcolm Gladwell's "Outliers" about success. Students will be assigned a variety of papers and essays throughout the year to relate course topics and readings to their own experiences. (1 English credit)

10/18 HW #23 Complete typed, double-spaced book report and work on IRP

Use the directions on the IRP weekly questions handout to write your book report. This is due on Monday because you will have to do edits before Thursday.  Also, spend time working on your IRP creative project.  This is 25% of your final grade and is due on Thursday at the beginning of class.

You must have your book report and creative project (both must be done well) to receive a grade this session.

Other work priorities:
  • Edits to self-description
  • Edits to Myers Briggs response
