Augusta Adult and Community Education

In this English course, we will cover Linda Sue Park's novel, A Long Walk to Water. We will find ourselves reading about the lives of two individuals, bound by geography and history, yet separated by time. As the journeys of Nya, a young girl fetching water in war-torn Sudan, and Salva, a boy displaced by conflict, different themes to explore become more apparent. After determining which standards are needed we will fulfill the ones needed through discussions, essays, and creative projects. Academic students only.
