Hello Seniors!
Let's read an awesome text together. "The Perks..." is an amazing coming of age story that is written in epistolary format. We will experiment with the format in our own writing. Immerse yourself in these words, this music, and the film. It is layered and worthy of discussion and written reflection. I look forward to seeing you enjoy this eye-opening unit. Bring your best.
