Universal Human Experience

Welcome to the end of the year! You've completed an intellectually powerful year, reading seven or more books, exploring fiction, non-fiction, poetry and a range of other texts through conversations, writing, and presenting. I can't believe it's almost June!

We have used the provocation of 'the Universal Human Experience' to frame our approach to 10th grade English. I said the frame was like an umbrella, and we touched base with it - like the prongs coming down the sides of an umbrella - each time we finished a unit.

To culminate your exploration of your selected Universal Human Experience, you will explain what it means to be human, how you came to that understanding, and why it's important to consider as we step off into the world (or at least into the summer). Explaining your argument in an EdCafe presentation, you will explain your thinking and lead a discussion on your claim. Through the process and product of this unit, you will prove that you are ready to embark on Junior Year.

  11. I have been surfing on-line more than three hours lately, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It is pretty price enough for me. In my view,
    if all website owners and bloggers made just right content as you did, the web can be a lot more helpful
    than ever before.

  13. Hi there would you mind letting me know which webhost you're using? I've loaded your blog
    in 3 different web browsers and I must say this blog
    loads a lot faster then most. Can you suggest a good hosting provider at a honest price?
    Thanks a lot, I appreciate it!
