2020-2021 English 10 Honors Tentative Reading ListThe below are the texts we will potentially cover this year. We will not be reading all of these texts. Feel free to purchase these texts if you prefer to have your own copy.
In addition to assigned reading, students should be conducting Outside Reading. Outside Reading are books of students' choice that they will be reading both in and outside of class throughout the year. The books should be appropriate (many books are available in my Class Library and the CVHS Library, and I encourage you to discuss their books with them), and enjoyable. This assignment is intended to cultivate a love for independent reading and boost reading, vocabulary, critical thinking, and language skills. Students have my permission to stop reading an Outside Reading book if they are not enjoying it and pick a new book! Their Outside Reading book should be brought to class daily.
