My Project

Hello Everyone,

Our study during second quarter centers around the origins and development of the horror genre of fiction.

The two books purchased from this grant will allow studebts to choose which they prefer to read, discuss and analyze.

Our first quarter read. Enrique's Journey was an invaluable way to learn about the challenges faced by undocumented immigrants. I look forward to reading this quarter's class novel choices. Research tells us that reading enhances all of our skill sets and our understanding of the world and ither people.

Thank you for your support!
