Welcome to Pre-AP English 1! I am excited to have you in class.

Today, we are watching a short TEDEd video on The Hero’s Journey in literature. We’re using this concept as the basis of your fiction summer reading project (The Hero’s Journey Diagram Assignment), which will be due on Tuesday, September 4 and will count as a major grade (three times a regular grade).

For homework tonight, please begin thinking about how you might craft your project. Thank you for joining me today — I’m looking forward to a great year with you all!
