Summer Reading Assignment: AP Literature 2017 AP Literature and Composition AP Literature and Composition AP Government and AP MicroEconomics Overview: The purpose of summer reading is to provide students an introduction to the style and quality of literature that they will encounter in a 12 th grade AP Literature course. Your commitment to these assignments will give you a head start, which will prepare you for the upco ming year, the AP class, the AP exam, your college career and beyond. This year you will have the option to choose between an AP-Aligned piece of literature and a high-interest novel. The Advanced Placement class will focus on close readings of multiple texts. A close reading involves a careful analysis of passages leading to synthesis with the larger work. This year you will also get to choose from a list of creative summer assignment activities to engage with your chosen work. In addition to optimizing the power of choice this year, the grade that students receive from their AP Literature & Composition summer assignment will also be utilized as a summative grade for AP U.S. Government & Politics. Texts: May 22 nd is the deadline to purchase your book THIS YEAR and to sign up for Edmodo. You must show your book to your CURRENT homeroom teacher ON May 22 nd for grade. AP Aligned piece of literature: George Orwell-1984 -If you choose this option, you are already prepping for the AP exam. You can use this text on one of the essays! 1984: Written in 1948, 1984 was George Orwell s chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, Orwell s narrative is timelier than ever. 1984 presents a startling and haunting vision of the world, so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the power of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of multiple generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions a legacy that seems only to grow with the passage of time (amazon.com). For my conspiracy theorists. This book will make you upset; it will make you question the reality of the world in which you live and just how willing you are to give up your freedom and liberties. High-Interest Novel: Suzanne Collins The Hunger Games In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games," a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed (amazon.com)

Extra Credit (Optional Assignment): Students will receive 5 extra credit points on the end of course exam in December that counts for 15% of their grade for AP U.S. Government & Politics. Students have the option to write a 3-4 page paper that compares the government in 1984 or The Hunger Games to the U.S. government. Additionally, students are required to cite specific examples from either 1984 or The Hunger Games and compare them to similar situations in the U.S. These will be turned in the first week of school.
