Class Description:

ONE YEAR CLASS:

In this NEW English high school credit class for 11th & 12th grade students, they will further develop their essay writing skills and be given the opportunity to compose persuasive and informative essays on a variety of subjects. Students will learn how to counter arguments with rebuttals and how to make their points convincing and memorable. Throughout the year, we’ll also explore some classic British literature and poetry from the 19^th and 20^th centuries, analyzing the impact of history on the writing and discussing genre, character, and themes.
