Hillcrest High School AP English Literature and Composition Summer Work Overview 2018-2019 School Year Thank you for your interest in AP English Literature and Composition. Please note that this is a college-level course - much of the reading and work required will be completed outside of class. These summer assignments are your first opportunity to show your ability to work independently and to make deeper, meaningful connections within, between, and outside texts. All inquiries about the work should be directed to: Dr. Matt Benavides matt.benavides@alvordschools.org matt.benavides@alvordschools.net Please join the summer Google Classroom - I will post online resources here. Google Classroom Code: kfmpdf You will need two self-contained, college-ruled composition books for the work below. All summer work is to be handwritten in its own respective composition book and organized/labeled into the sections as outlined below. All work must be one s own - copying, either from another student or from another source, is unacceptable and will result in a zero for the entirety of the work. As work is completed, please also study the content and become familiar with the basic essentials of each text. All work is due on Friday, August 10th. A formal in-class assessment on the summer work s content will occur on the 10th as well. As you complete the material, familiarize yourself with the contents and prepare for the assessment. This material will also be referred to throughout the school year. Students are recommended, if possible, to obtain physical copies of the necessary texts. This will allow for a greater opportunity to interact with the text, to make notes, or to read ahead. These titles are available at most local bookstores, or may be checked out from local libraries. All texts are also readily available on the web. I will post digital copies of each text on Google Classroom. Required Summer Texts / Tasks: 1) How to Read Literature Like a Professor (Revised Edition) by Thomas C. Foster. ISBN: 978-0062301673 There are 32 sections in the book - one introduction, three interludes, 27 chapters, and one concluding chapter ( envoi ). Carefully read the full text. For each of the 32 sections, via 2-3 meaningful paragraphs (each 5-7 sentences minimum in length), respond to the text. Summarize the main ideas found therein and react to the text (respond, connect, etc.). Your responses should display a clear understanding of the relevance of each section s ideas in relation to the study of literature. All entries must be handwritten in a college-ruled composition book. You will use this same composition book for the next two sections as well. 1

2) Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes by Edith Hamilton. ISBN: 978-0446574754 or 978-0-316-22333-1 Read all the stories listed below. Summarize, in your own words, the essentials of each story (including the meaning/theme) via no less than 2-3 meaningful paragraphs (each 5-7 sentences minimum in length). Each bullet point below is considered a separate story. The more substantial stories will merit a lengthier response. Your responses should display a clear understanding of each story s occurrences and meaning/theme/moral. Entries must be handwritten and included in the same composition book as the How to Read Literature Like a Professor work above and The Bible work below. I. The Gods - The Titans and the Twelve Great Olympians - The Lesser Gods of Olympus - The Underworld - The Lesser Gods of Earth - The Roman Gods II. The Two Great Gods of Earth - Demeter (Ceres) - Dionysus or Bacchus III. How the World and Mankind Were Created IV.

Theseus XI. Hercules XIII. The Trojan War - The Judgment of Paris - The Trojan War XIV. The Fall of Troy XV. The Adventures of Odysseus XVIII. The Royal House of Thebes - Oedipus - Antigone XX. Midas - and Others - Midas (410) XXI. Brief Myths Arranged Alphabetically - Sisyphus (440) 2

3) The Bible Use any translation (i.e. KJV, NIV, NAS). However, the King James Version is highly recommended, as this is the version most alluding to in literature. Feel free to utilize online bible sources such as the following: https://www.biblegateway.com/ https://www.bible.com/bible https://www.biblestudytools.com/ Read each story listed below (each bullet-point is considered a separate story). Summarize, in your own words, the essentials of each story (including the meaning/theme) via no less than 2-3 meaningful paragraphs (each 5-7 sentences minimum in length). The more substantial stories will merit a lengthier response. Your responses should display a clear understanding of each story s occurrences and meaning/theme/moral. Entries must be handwritten and included in the same composition book as the How to Read Literature Like a Professor and Mythology work above. Genesis - The Creation - The Fall - The Mark of Cain - Noah and The Flood - Babel - Sodom and Gomorrah - The Sacrifice of Isaac - Jacob s Ladder Exodus - Moses and the Burning Bush - The Plagues of Egypt - Parting of the Red Sea - Moses at Sinai 1 Samuel 17 - David and Goliath Old Testament Daniel 6 - Daniel in the Lion s Den Job 41 - Leviathan Psalms - Psalm 23 - Psalm 104 - Psalm 137 Jonah - Jonah in the Belly of the Whale Matthew 1-7; - The Nativity - The Temptation of Jesus in the Wilderness - The Sermon on the Mount Mark 4; 11; 14-16 - The Problem of the Parables - The Triumphal Entry - The Last Supper - The Betrayal (Thirty Pieces of Silver) - The Crucifixion - The Resurrection Luke 1-2; 15 - The Annunciation - The Prodigal Son New Testament John 4; 8; 11; 20 - Jesus and the Samaritan Woman - Raising Lazarus from the Dead - Jesus and Mary in the Garden Revelation - Armageddon - The Second Coming 3

4) Literary Terms Journal - List #0 Attached you will find the Literary Terms - Journal Instructions and the first list of your literary terms journal (List #0). As per the journal instructions, you will need a separate college-ruled composition book to complete this task - please do not use the same composition book as the summer work tasks above. Just a heads up - you will eventually need a second literary terms composition book (for 2nd Semester), so you may want to pick up another one this summer. Please carefully follow the literary terms journal instructions. 4

Literary Terms Journal Instructions This year you will be compiling a literary journal that explores literary terms, resources, and vocabulary in preparation for the AP Exam. In addition to journal checks, you will be regularly tested on the contents. Your thorough completion of this journal (and knowledge of its contents) is integral to your success henceforth, so please stay diligent and focused. You need two self-contained college-ruled composition books for the journal (we will reach the second book during the 2nd Semester). Directions: 1) Clearly label your notebook. Feel free to decorate it, doll it up, etc., but please keep your notebook legible and orderly. 2) Number each page in the top corner. 3) Leave the first four full pages blank (table of contents). 4) Divide, horizontally, each page in half. 5) Copy each term - highlight it, underline it, or box it (make it easily stand out). 6) Write the definition down. 7) For vocabulary/tone words (not for literary devices), find and copy down two synonyms and two antonyms for the term. 8) For each term, find two examples that clearly display your understanding of the term. If it s a literary term, such as an allusion, find two specific examples and quote them. If it s a vocabulary/tone word, write down two sentences that effectively utilize the term. Your examples should show a clear understanding of the term. 9) With each list, please add to your table of contents in the front of the book. 10) As this journal will be referred to throughout the year, and especially as we approach the AP Exam, please keep your notebook thorough, organized, and legible. You will be tested on the contents after each terms list. Familiarize yourself with the definitions, concepts, and examples of each term - you will be assessed accordingly. Know not only the definition - be able to identify the correct use of each term. For example, know how to identify an example of an allusion or an example of a metaphor. For tone words, be able to choose the correct term in its correct context.
