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)

HW 13: Reading Response 4 for POBAW or AS

Write your one-page minimum, typed, double-spaced response to Part 4 of POBAW or Ch. 7-8 of AS.  Be sure you are continuing to follow the reading response guidelines and making connections between what has happened in earlier sections and what new events are occurring. Pay attention to important themes that continue to come up, as well. Take note of my past corrections to grammar and pay attention to correcting those mistakes.
