All Modern Language Courses - Levels 4 & AP:

T
The Summer Reading Assignments are based on the premise that learning a language effectively requires consistent practice. Students enrolled in Levels 4 and AP are expected to have a strong command of the main areas of language acquisition that includes listening, speaking, reading, writing and communication. Consequently, for students to maintain and develop essential vocabulary and cultural insights, they will need to read and give their responses in different formats and be prepared to confidently articulate their feedback on the assignments in the language.
 
It is imperative that the modern language version of the book be used to complete the assignments. Do NOT use translations, translators, or films to gain an understanding of the books listed. Embrace the task of immersing yourself in the language and culture with a good story filled with suspense, action and drama.
 
Due to the structure and approach of Modern Language courses, you will be required to participate, interact and even debate on a daily basis in the respective language on a VARIETY of topics. The more confident you are about speaking, the more success you will have!
 
Materials you will need:
