AP Language Final Unit

Hello Class,
Our last unit is called "Lessons in Life." We will be reading written works that teach a lesson for or about life and writing our own individual written work that teaches a lesson for or about life.

Monday:
Bring a poem, short story, non-fiction, or song lyrics that teaches a positive lesson about or for life. Make sure the piece resonates with you and teaches a lesson that you would apply to your own life. Be prepared to share!

Wednesday:
Write and bring in a working draft of a poem, short story, non-fiction, or written work that teaches a lesson about life that you have learned and that you believe others should be informed about and/or apply to their lives. By "working draft," I mean the complete work as perfect as you can get it.

Friday:
Bring in your final revised draft of your written piece. Be prepared to present it. The work to the class.

Sincerely,
Hampton
