Greenbrier High School

AP Literature Group A

Course Description

Welcome back to school and the beginning of your Senior YEAR!

Where do we start? With Summer Reading of course! This will take several weeks to work our way through, inserting archetype lessons from chapters from How to Read Literature Like a Professor along the way. We begin with Critical Theory and Archetype, and we will work with Oedipus Rex first. So if you didn't read it thoroughly, read it well, or read it at all, you have a few days to review it and catch up. You can expect criticism, theory, lenses, and archetypes to be applied. Socratic Circle will help solidify ideas on this foundational text. Jane Eyre and The Metamorphosis will follow. Add Senior Project on top of that, and we have a busy first few weeks!

Keep checking in on the website for major project due dates, Senior Project article updates, and documents and websites that will help you make it through this semester. I will update periodically!

WHEN YOU SIGN UP, the default is "YES, I WANT TO TAKE THE AP LIT EXAM."  If you already know that you aren't taking it, make sure to "un-check" that box.  

This is a NMSI year again - there won't be incentive money for passing tests, but we will be supported with reduced fees for AP tests in Science, Math, and English.  Also, virtual study sessions will be held throughout the year like before.  Take advantage of these when you can.
