1. Welcome to Ms. White’s English Class!
In this class, we will be
looking at literature
from 1000 A.D. through
today. We will see how
historical events
influence literature and
how literature has
influenced history.
Class discussion will be
a significant (and
hopefully fun!) part of
the class. I look
forward to hearing your
personal
interpretations, views,
and opinions on our
subjects of study!
