LHFC Pre-AP English Outside Reading List 2009-2010
You will be required to complete two book
reports from this outside reading list this year.
Any of the books listed below are acceptable for those two reports. You
must, however,
turn in one of the permission slips below before making
your selections. If your Pre-AP English teacher does not have a signed
permission slip when ready to grade your report, you will receive NO
credit for your effort and a zero will be recorded.
Information/directions, etc.
on the two reports themselves will be given
to you closer to the time they are due by your
Pre-AP English teacher. The first report will be due in early November
and the second report will be due mid-spring semester. Dates TBA by your
Pre-AP English teacher.
