New Hope-Solebury: AP Literature
AP Literature 2010-2011
You should read each of the following six (6) books during summer vacation. This year we are doing six because some of the novels are very short. You should take notes on each in a journal, on note cards, or in a computer file you can easily reference when you return to school.
Read the Thomas Foster book first:
For this book make notes on each chapter as he always gives you something to look for.
Read the novels in any order you like
For each of the five novels, it is suggested that you keep a record of the following:
• Basic plot points
• Main characters and brief description of each
• Important symbols and explanations
• At least two important themes from each book with appropriate commentary on each
• Any additional information that will help you in class.
There will be a comprehensive assessment when you return, including a 50 question multiple choice exam related to the 6 required books as well as essays and class work on each of the books. The first 4-5 weeks will depend on the summer reading. Be ready on day one. No, I will not be collecting your notes, but will be happy to go over them with you if you like.
The following six books are required reading. Find suggested books for self-selected reading here.
