choirfarm Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I just found the coolest resource for preparing for AP literature: http://homepage.mac.com/mseffie/AP/ap.html I was also thinking of using some Teaching Company courses. They have so many on poetry as well as various literary genres as well as how to read a book. Which ones do you think would complement AP literature best?

choirfarm Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Download the Books Are Either Books or Swords. IT has GREAT ideas for interacting with literature. I mean GREAT. No more Progeny Press Guides ever again. I love the projects in here.. facebook pages for your character, newspapers, great thoughtful questions. I love this.

I can't believe all the stuff is there in one location. For TC, we have been watching The History of World Literature and really enjoy it. You would be a better at analyzing whether you think it would work for AP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
