С»Æ贫ý

This is a fun class where we read lots of different kinds of things in order to practice a variety of reading skills. We also read short stories from around the world that show how people use English in different ways. We will read a lot, and we will talk a lot about what we read in order to share ideas and information. 

NOTE: This is a summer term, which has only 8 weeks. But we will still read the same as a regular term. So you must have enough time to read at home.

If you have any questions, please contact me: Tim Krause: timothy.krause@pcc.edu

You will need to be able to have regular access to the internet for this course. You will need to be able to read stories, and watch and listen to videos online. You will need to be able to use Google Docs, С»Æ贫ý email, and D2L. We have two textbooks:

2. "Short Stories from the Outer Circle" -- This is only a website; there is no book to print. You can access this website from your computer, laptop, smartphone or other device with internet.
