Hello AP Lit and Comp students,
Just a brief note-- students should be working on their Crime and Punishment literary term presentations.
Also, a first draft of the college application essay is due Friday. This will receive an essay grade.
Crime and Punishment Review assignments will be moved to Thursday, the 24th-- students who did not receive their assignments will be assigned their sections tomorrow.
Looking ahead: We will be discussing themes and character development in Crime and Punishment. Friday we will be reading a Rita Dove poem titled "Parsley".
Next week you will take a practice AP multiple choice exam. You will also be assigned your major Crime and Punishment paper topics. For this paper, I hope to meet with you individually to work on specific writing skills.
You will also soon have a quiz on Greek and Latin roots and vocabulary so far (including the vocabulary from your classmates' presentations).
We will also engage in critical study of Dostoevsky's political and social views, and analyze the text through a structuralist and archetypal perspective.
