Honors Class :
SUMMER READING PROGRAM
All students are required to read a full-length historical work over the summer of your own choice. The definition of a full length work is 200 pages or greater. That work must be specifically related to the history of the United States. It may be non-fiction or fiction; pick a topic, author, genre, or time period that you are interested in. An instructor-generated list of possible choices are given on the back of this sheet but you do not have to use one from that list. In addition, you are not allowed to use any assigned summer reading from your English class. Also, do not feel limited to reading only one work; I encourage you to read much more. You can never read enough. Be prepared to discuss your reading selection when we return to school.
EXPOSITORY ESSAY
All students are required to submit an essay of 2-4 standard pages on their reading selection (a standard page is defined as being 200-250 words, so handwritten papers may require greater length to meet the word requirement). This is not a dry book report or plot summary of the reading selection; this is a critical analysis that requires you to start writing about and exploring ideas that are pertinent to the course and your interests. I expect you to devote time to a discussion of the summer reading, including: themes, style, point-of-view, points of interest, and likes/dislikes. The essay should be an expression of your opinion and unique point-of-view. The essay is not a summary of historical events; it is an academic discourse of your reactions to the topic and analysis of the author’s point-of-view. All essays will be due on the first day of school. This will be the first item that goes into your Final Portfolio. (The Final Portfolio will be made up of a body of work from throughout the year and will count as your final exam at the end of the year). Expository essays are an integral component of the class and will be done continually throughout the year.
