A high school reading elective course (no prerequisites required!) In this class, we will read dystopian novels together like ''The Giver, Uglies, Internment, Scythe, The Grace Year,'' and ''The Hunger Games.'' By using our own knowledge of historical and current events, we will evaluate each book against the essential question: Fiction or the future? This course will require weekly reading requirements outside of class time and weekly participation in whole class discussions. Students will also develop and strengthen their academic research skills, essay writing, and creative project skills
