Novel Study (Grades 9–11) – List 2

$10/week/student

Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking for Independent Learners

This self-guided novel study program is designed for students in Grades 9–11 who are ready to engage with meaningful literature in a structured, accessible format. The selected novels are widely taught in classrooms and offer rich opportunities to explore character, theme, conflict, and societal issues—without exposing students to mature or inappropriate content.

Each novel is broken into weekly reading sections, accompanied by comprehension questions, structured writing prompts, and a final short essay. All assignments are grounded in the text, and students are encouraged to develop strong analytical thinking and clear written expression through each lesson.


✍️ How It Works

  • Each novel is divided into weekly lessons (one per week)

  • Every lesson includes:
    → A reading assignment
    Comprehension questions
    → A short writing task

  • Each unit concludes with a final short essay focused on a key theme or character development

Caution Note for Parents:
