British Novels
British literature, classics from the 19th and 20th century will be the focus of this course. In this course you will have the opportunity to read and research two novels selected from a list of classics and will be encouraged to prepare to teach one of these novels. While the course may be most appropriate for secondary teachers, those who teach other levels may also enjoy the satisfaction that comes from reading great literature.

As I work with young readers and writers in my own classroom, I continue to search for ways to engage students with literature and the writing process: How can I help students become more confident and independent readers? How can I help students communicate effectively? How can I help students recognize the inherent value and enjoyment of reading and writing well? Because I know that other teachers ask themselves these same questions, I am passionate about my work at Fresno Pacific. The opportunity to engage with other teaching professionals is inspiring and rewarding; I hope that a collaborative sharing of ideas and strategies will enrich our teaching of reading and writing even further.
