Reading and Responding With a Purpose A

These courses present students with a foundation for creating accurate and thorough literary analysis.  Students are welcome to take the individual sections in any order.  Each section meets once per week for a total of 4 lessons each.  We’ll be focusing on short-short stories – only a few pages that can be read in a single sitting but still allow us to deal with a complete, literary arc.

Each of the pieces is a professionally written work by a renowned author, and each offers a phenomenal climactic moment, driving home a powerful theme.
