African-American Literature Syllabus | High School English | Great Black Writers
By Rigorous Resources for High School English
This syllabus is for a course on African-American Literature. The year-long course features literary texts by some of the best African-American novelists, playwrights, and poets: Frederick Douglass, Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Lorraine Hansberry, Toni Morrison, and more.
The curriculum is organized chronologically and was designed to highlight several important African-American literary and cultural movements: slave narratives, the Harlem Renaissance, Civil Rights Literature, Black Arts Poetry, etc. The curriculum is deliberately diverse in its representation of gender and brings an intersectional approach to the study of literary characters.
In addition, the curriculum features works by African-American authors written in a wide range of literary genres: novels, memoirs, plays, and poems. The daily lesson plans equip students with the terminologies and techniques for analyzing texts written in those different genres.
The units for each book listed on the syllabus can be found via the links below:
• Frederick Douglass, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass (1845)
• Langston Hughes, Selected Poetry
• Nella Larsen, Passing (1929)
• Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God (1938)
• Gwendolyn Brooks, Selected Poetry
• Lorraine Hansberry, A Raisin in the Sun (1959)
• Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye (1972)
• Octavia Butler, Kindred (1979)
• Writing Analytical Papers
Rigorous Resources your one-stop shop for top-quality teaching resources on complex literature by diverse authors. Each unit was created by a Ph.D. in English who has taught for 20+ years and published award-winning essays on American literature.
Because this syllabus fully editable, you'll be able to customize this syllabus to suit your own literary tastes and/or the skill levels of your students — year after year! If you have any questions about the syllabus or any of the unit plans, please don't hesitate to get in touch via the email address below. I'm eager to do everything I can to make sure you have an amazing experience with teaching African-American Literature!

Bundle: Programming in Java Course- Intro to Java to Arrays
By Howlin' Husky Math Games
Hello and welcome!
Starting a new school year teaching programming? Are you math teacher and have been thrown into teaching a computer science course? Now you have NO IDEA where to start! Have you taught computer science, but want to try something else? Are you teaching AP Computer Science A and need materials? Math and computer science are related, but are not the same!
I have your back. I've been teaching math and computer science, including APCSP, APCSA, and Data Structures for almost two decades. I also teach an introduction course. This is part of the course I made up for my intro students. I have a BS in computer science and know what students need to know.
This bundle covers from "your first Java program" to arrays. This is a HEFTY semester (About 6 months) worth of materials. Inside this bundle you'll find:
Topics:
Programming in Java 0: Introduction to Java
Programming in Java 1: Variables and Types
Programming in Java 2: The Scanner Class
Programming in Java 3: The Random and Math Classes
Programming in Java 4: The String and DecimalFormat Classes
Programming in Java 5: Drawing Shapes
Programming in Java 6: If Statements
Programming in Java 7: Looping Statements
Programming in Java 8: Creating Classes Objects Methods and Drivers
Programming in Java 9: Creating Classes- Constructors, Parameters, and
return Statements
Programming in Java 10: Creating Classes- Advanced Techniques
Programming in Java op1: Introduction to Arrays
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow - Can be teacher or student driven!
an assignment - differentiated with three different levels! - Almost 100 total
exercises!
a pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an answer key in pdf form - For a quick check
an answer key in .java form - Runnable out of the box.
This bundle is packed with activities. You can pick and choose the ones you like or have students do their best to reach the "Hacker" level. The bundle covers up to about Unit 6 on the AP Computer Science A exam; a perfect addition!
Depending on your style, you could go over the slides as a group, then let students play around. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them go.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error and collaboration.
Great for asynchronous learning and homeschooling! Could be used as a self- taught course or go at your own pace! Everything for learning is included!
Welcome to the world of programming! It's going to be a blast!

Bundle: Year Long Programming in Java Course
By Howlin' Husky Math Games
Hello and welcome!
Are you math teacher and have been thrown into teaching a computer science course? Now you have NO IDEA where to start! Have you taught computer science, but want to try something else? Are you teaching AP Computer Science A and need materials? Math and computer science are related, but are not the same!

This bundle is HUGE! It has more than you can cover in one year in a programming course. It starts with the very basic "Hello World" program, goes through loops and logic, to classes with an optional lesson on arrays. This first semester is equivalent to a college level programming course.
The course then takes a fun turn into using the JSwing package and forms in Java.
To top off the course, it ends with game creation. It teaches students how to use Listeners, Timers, and create their own Sprites. This is an out of the box experience that students will love.
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow - Can be teacher or student driven!
an assignment - differentiated with three different levels!
a pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an answer key in pdf form - For a quick check
an answer key in .java form - Runnable out of the box.
You can pick and choose the ones you like or have students do their best to reach the "Hacker" level. This will last about a mark period and can be extended easily!
Depending on your style, you could go over the slides as a group, then let students play around. Or you could just give them the slides and assignment and let them go.
Let students explore and make mistakes. Let them talk to each other and discuss their approaches. Programming takes a lot of trial and error and collaboration.

How to make a String
Useful methods in the String class
Looking at the API
Using the DecimalFormat class
All lessons will come with the following:
a pdf slideshow
a pacing guide with hints for teaching the section and common student
errors
an assignment, differentiated with three different levels!
